• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, we need more explanation. Clause 12 relates to household information that is being given and there is a simpler version in the Bill. It says: “Any person or household having custody of, or information in charge of, any record…” That is what seems to be the issue. It is much more detailed here: 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
• 7 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: “Any person or household having custody of, or being in charge of, any record or document from which information sought in furtherance of the purposes of this Act can, in the opinion of the Director-General, be obtained, or which would aid in the completion or correction of information already obtained…” This needs more explanation. There seems to be some protection of the right of the household and it is not coming out clearly. This one should be explained clearly before we debate it. view

Temporary Deputy Chairlady, what is happening here is that during the census, there may be some information that a family has and in the opinion of the Director-General, that information is necessary for the purposes of the census as in this Act. Basically, they are just changing the wording and the amendment is a better wording than what is in the old Act. I, therefore, support because I understand. view
