    "content": "(2A) In appointing the persons under subsection 2(d), the Cabinet Secretary shall ensure that the marginalised groups are represented. In Section 3(1), the amendment seeks to reduce the number of board members. This amendment is about board members. The original Bill proposed that the Cabinet Secretary appoints seven members. However, if we are to go by that, it means that eventually, the board members will be more than nine. Therefore, we propose that the Cabinet Secretary shall appoint a maximum of six members because three are already provided for. When you take the three who are compulsory and then the six by the Cabinet Secretary, they will be nine. That will be within the requirements of the Constitution. Therefore, we are limiting the number of the appointees by the Cabinet Secretary to six because three are compulsory members of the board."
