If you look at the proviso to the current Clause 5 of the Bill it states: Provided that paragraphs (e) and (f) shall not apply to a refugee falling under section 3(1)(a) and (b) of this Act who is able to invoke compelling reasons arising out of previous persecution for refusing to avail himself or herself the protection of their country of nationality or former habitual residence.

The Committee’s amendment is seeking to delete the words “falling under section 3 (1) (a) and (b) of this Act.” So, it remains as a refugee falling and who is able to invoke compelling reasons. We want to make it more clear by removing those specific references.

Hon.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, what we are proposing is to amend sub-clause (2) of Clause 8 by inserting the words “coordinate activities to” before the words “ensure the civilian” in paragraph (n). That is just to make it clear and better. In (b), we amend by deleting the words “co- ordination of” and substituting therefor the words “co-ordinate, where relevant in collaboration with county authorities,” in paragraph (u). Again, it is just for semantics.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I oppose the amendment by Hon. Millie, on behalf of the Committee. This is because in sub-clause (q), we are already talking about ensuring treatment of asylum seekers and refugees in compliance with national laws. That nation laws phrase is very wide. It includes international law which we have ratified, as the former Leader of the Majority Party mentions. This indeed includes everything that Hon. Millie is seeking to amend.
