    "content": "THAT, the Schedule to the Bill be amended in the proposed amendments to the Children Act No. 8 of 2001 by deleting— (f) the proposed amendment to section 155; The amendment seeks to delete the amendment on the Bill which says the Committee may, with the approval of the Cabinet Secretary, co-opt into its membership not more than two persons whose knowledge and experience it considers necessary for the better performance of its functions under this Act. This amendment is not necessary because the provision of section 155 already gives the provision to get a committee. That committee is fully established. Why again are we amending the Act by getting another provision of putting two more Members who are co- opted by the Committee? So, the essence is that the Act as it is, is adequate and there is no need to put this co-option phrase. So, that is the essence of that amendment."
