• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, I beg to move - THAT, Clause 35 of the Bill be amended in sub-clause (1) by deleting the word “person’s” appearing immediately after the words “discharge of the” in paragraph (a) and substituting therefor the word “officer’s”. This is because here, we are talking about public officers and not just persons. view
• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, I beg to move- THAT, Clause 36 of the Bill be amended in paragraph (a) by deleting the words “from a public office” appearing immediately after the words “or other benefit” and substituting therefor the words “under this Act”. The import of this amendment is to talk about public officers. This is just cleaning it up and nothing more. view

• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, I am trying to look at her amendment. Of course, we have also provided for the three times. I am trying to see where it is different. view
• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: Yes, Madam Temporary Speaker. I want to persuade Sen. Farhiya otherwise on the amendment on Clause 37 because she has only amended the part for three times. We have done that too but we have also amended other parts of Clause 37. If you look at both amendments, there is a difference. view
• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: No, Madam Temporary Chairperson. I insist. Sen. Farhiya, it is not just about moving amendments, it is doing something more than moving. What you want of three times is already provided for but I am amending other parts as well in that Clause 37. view
• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, three times is in the Committee’s proposed amendments and that is the only one we are doing. So, her amendment is part of my amendment. view
• 9 Jun 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, I already proposed the amendment as per the Order Paper. view
