    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to oppose the Bill. My brother, Hon. Chris, has done a lot of work and I am sure he has very good intentions. If this Bill becomes law, it cannot be admissible. If we are establishing an institution for directors, then there should be qualifications that will cut across. If the Bill becomes law, we will have some qualifications for all directors in the country. This cannot be admissible at the end. I know of very successful companies in the country which are run by directors who have never stepped in a classroom. You may call them illiterate, but they have grown their companies from as low as zero to very prominent and highly respected companies in this country. If we pass this Bill and make it law, and then we say that all directors should have a first degree, then that cannot work at all. This can only work for Government parastatals. Otherwise, this cannot work The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
