Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I think they are substantively the same, except for the addition of trade union official in the Defence Committee which is acceptable. So, I think it is better we withdraw ours so that that one can be debated on.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 16 be amended in Sub-Clause (1) by deleting the words “The Director-General may, in consultation with the Council” appearing at the beginning of the sub-clause (1) and substituting therefor the words “The Council shall”. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, this has to do with employment. We feel it is better that this is handled by the Council, as opposed to an individual, in this case the Director-General. So, we are institutionalising the function in the Council.

Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, first of all, that has a structural problem. If a matter is lawful, it does not need good faith. Good faith comes in when you do something wrong or unlawful. But you have done it in good faith and that is what we are trying to cover. If it is lawful, you do not need to be covered, which is why instead of bonafide we are substituting therefor the words “or omitted to be done in good faith” and, therefore, removing the lawful bit. This is because if it is lawful then you do not need ...

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thought that, that is the whole point why we are indemnifying them. If it is lawful, they do not need to be indemnified. They have acted within the law.
