• 11 May 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 6 of the Bill be amended — (a) in sub-clause (2) by deleting the words “his or her”; and, (b) by inserting the following new sub clause immediately after sub clause (2)— “(2A) The Principal Registrar shall take measures to ensure correct documentation and registration of intersex children at birth. The Committee has two amendments in this clause. The first one is an inclusion of intersex children which has been a big subject in our Committee. The second one is a new sub-clause that will give the Registrar powers to ... view

• 11 May 2022 in National Assembly: Again, this is related to the intersex children, and even as we go through this discussion, I want to bring to the attention of the House that our Committee took time to really understand the challenges that our children who are referred to as “intersex” go through.

It is also my hope that people would differentiate between intersex and those other things that ... view
• 11 May 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I beg to move: THAT, Clause 10 of the Bill be amended— (a) in sub clause (3) by deleting the word “Director” and substituting therefor the word “Secretary”; and (b) in sub clause (7) by deleting the word “Director” and substituting therefor the word “Secretary”. This is a simple amendment. We are replacing the term “Director” with “Secretary” to align it with the current position in the Office of the Directorate of Children Services. It is now headed by a secretary and not a director. This is an amendment that will frequently occur in ... view

• 11 May 2022 in National Assembly: (i) by deleting the word “Director” and substituting therefor the word “Secretary” appearing in paragraph (a); (d) in sub clause (7) by deleting the word “State” and substituting therefor the words “Cabinet Secretary responsible for matters relating to finance.” Most of these amendments are to tidy up and correct grammatical errors. We have one that is replacing the term “Director” with “Secretary.” The last one mandates the Cabinet Secretary in charge of Finance to make regulations establishing the Children Welfare Fund, under the Public Finance Management Act. view
