19 Apr 2018 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chair I beg to move: THAT, Clause 25 of the Bill be amended in sub clause (1) by — (a) deleting the word “property” appearing before the word “operation”; and, (b) inserting the word “irrigation” immediately after the words “association or at”. Ownership of land is a sensitive issue which requires a broad-based approach and mechanism to resolve. This proposed amendment seeks to remove the resolution of disputes relating to property from the ambit of irrigation and Water Users’ Association or at the scheme level. Thank you.

At the outset, I would like to state that our proposed amendment in Clause 34 is somewhat different from what the Leader of the Majority Party has moved. If I could read it out: “THAT, Clause 34 of the Bill be amended in sub clause (2) by inserting the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph (f)— “(fa) The members of the National Irrigation Board established under the Irrigation Act Cap 347, shall continue in office as members of the Board until the expiry of their existing terms”. This proposed amendment seeks to provide transition of Board members to ensure continuity.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Having listened to the senior Members on the proposed amendment in this clause, I am left with no option but to agree. However, I want to thank my Committee. We looked at the same clause in the same way but the Leader of the Majority Party’s amendment is more comprehensive. So, I want to thank the Members of my Committee who are here for doing a fantastic job. I withdraw my amendment. Thank you very much.
