    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, Article 7 in my view, is actually plucked from Transitional Clause No. 5, where it states:- “A person is qualified for appointment as a member if such person - (c) has knowledge and experience of at least ten years in matters relating to any of the following fields---” This one, I protest. The good engineers of this country have been excluded. Scientists have been excluded. Accountants have been excluded. Why do we not stick to the provisions of the Constitution which talk of public administration, human rights and governance? Why do you include some professions and not others? So, Mr. Minister, I would urge you to consider that amendment and, certainly, if you must include professions, include the distinguished profession of engineering and accounting where yours truly is a member."
