    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, you made a serious statement based on the Constitution. That alone will make this amendment unconstitutional. In fact, our Director of Legal Services is sitting here. We do not want to pass something which is unconstitutional. It will be challenged in court. Two, there are a number of accountants working in the Parliamentary Service Commission who are not members of ICPAK. If this law is assented to and they do not join ICPAK, the law will be saying that they must be sacked: The same with the Government. There are many accountants working in the Government. On the flip side, you have raised a constitutional provision. On the basis of that constitutional provision alone, the Chairman needs to accept the fact that this proposed amendment is null and void. You cannot force me to join a professional body unless I was born with it, like my religion."
