    "content": "I have done some calculations. Mrs. Halima was born in 1988. She is 30 years old. She cleared school at the age of 18. She started her employment. I have looked at that Act keenly and there is nowhere in the Act where it indicates that you must have 10 years post-graduate experience after you finish university. We should not confuse the issue at hand. There are many people who have started jobs and then later on go and acquire a degree. You can go up to the masters and PhD level. With regard to the issue of 10 years’ experience, the nominee qualifies. It is not indicated anywhere in the Act that 10 years must be post-graduation. As far as this matter is concerned, the nominee qualifies. There is nowhere it is indicated that you must have graduated to gain the 10 years’ experience. The nominee is currently pursuing a master’s degree. This nominee has been a sitting Senator of this Parliament where she was involved in making the laws of this country. I humbly request you to dismiss this request because there is nowhere it has been specified that for you to gain the 10 years’ experience; you must have acquired a degree so that you qualify for that position. I support the Motion."
