    "content": "Finally, the proposed Committee’s amendment to Section 9(1)(i) of the Nurses Act, Cap. 257 deletes the President’s proposed text to delete the regulation of the standards of nursing commodities as a function of the Nursing Council. The Committee seems to be of the view that the regulation of the standards of nursing commodities is a function that should be retained by the Nursing Council until such time as Parliament enacts a single regulatory body for the regulation of health products and health technologies, as provided in Section 62 of the Health Act, No. 21 of 2017. This amendment, therefore, does not accommodate the President’s reservations and is, indeed, a direct negative. In this case, the provisions of Article 115(4)(a) of the Constitution will apply. Consequently, the passage of Section 9(1)(i) of the Nurses Act, Cap.257 will require the support of, at least, two-thirds of the membership of this House."
