This is progress. I think Parliament will evade the challenge we have always had of the issue of two- thirds gender rule. But I have some reservation which I want to share from my experience and I think the Committee should look into. This is especially on the issue of minorities. I think the Bill should clearly define the word minorities and who they are. Some of the people Hon. Sossion was referring to could be specified under this group."}
