• 18 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 3 of the Bill be amended in subclause (2) by inserting the word “and” immediately after the word “intergenerational” appearing in paragraph (e). The Committee proposes to amend subclause (2)(3) of the Bill to correct a grammatical error by inserting the word “and” between the words “intergenerational” and “gender”. This would, therefore, clarify the fact that it is both intergenerational and gender equity, which is to be maintained in all aspects of climate change. view

• 18 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 13 of the Bill be amended in subclaue (4) by inserting the words “of the Action Plan” immediately after the words “for mainstreaming.” This amendment would make it clear that it is the action plan that is to be mainstreamed into all sectors of the economy and not vice versa . view
