"content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, during the scrutiny of the Bill, the Committee made several observations. First, the proposed amendments change the procedure of appointing commissioners to be aligned with the constitutional principle of separation of powers. Secondly, the proposed amendments introduce a new section which clarifies the role of the chairperson in the Commission. The proposed amendments also enhance the requirements for a person to qualify as a commissioner to enhance the effectiveness of the Commission. Further, the term for the previous commissioners of the NCIC expired on August, 2018 and the recruitment of the commissioners was suspended following a petition filed by Mr. Okiya Omtatah on 7th November 2018."
