• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chair, I beg to move: THAT, the Schedule to the Bill be amended in the proposed amendments to the Counsellors and Psychologists Act, No.14 of 2014 by deleting the proposed amendments to (a) section 2. view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Section 2 is one of the sections I have proposed to amend. I had put them together. If you look at the proposed amendments, they are linked to each other because Section 2 is in respect of council and society as words in the Act. If you amend Section 2, it is going to defeat the proposed amendments to the other sections that I have proposed. view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: I, therefore, wish to propose amendments to Section 2. Am I making sense? view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I said Section 2 has a relation to the other sections. It is just deletion of the words, “council” and “society”, and that is what I oppose. When you move to Sections 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22, they are about the society. So, if you delete Section 2, it will affect retention of the others, which I am also opposed to. That is why I propose retention. I have reasons. Maybe Members are interested that I give reasons why I want to keep the society. One, the society was meant to be ... view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: once you are a member of the profession, qualified and registered, you will be recognised by the board. view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I also just wanted to clarify that there is no proposed amendment to this particular one. However, I am also aware of the submission to the Committee to that affect and, maybe, for information, this Act was passed by Parliament in 2014. It has not been implemented to date. It has not been operationalised to date. When you cause an amendment to an Act which you have not tested… That is why I am appealing. I will support the other amendments that have been proposed by the Committee and they are just coming after ... view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: I had promised not to oppose the amendments by the Chair and I want to stick to my word. But I want to point out that in the amendments that the Chair has brought, a point to note is that the Principal Secretary for the parent ministry has been excluded from the Board. view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Secondly, I do not know why there is inconsistency. In some Acts, it is proposed that the appointment of the chair be done by the President while in others it is by the Cabinet Secretary. Is this because some other boards or institutions are of lesser value? Why is there inconsistency? We know from all the enabling Acts of all institutions that the authority to appoint the chair is vested with the President. But, in today’s legislation in the Counsellors and Psychologists Act and the others, I have seen the chair is to be appointed by the CS. Maybe, the ... view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: This also applies to the diploma issue which the Leader of the Majority Party has articulated before. I do not wish to repeat that holders of diploma in some areas are recognised. I also think this should be addressed. view
• 25 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: 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. view
