• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: This is to allow that once the Director General is recommended by the Board to the respective Cabinet Secretary, then the gazettement should be done by the respective Cabinet Secretary and not the Board. The other reason is, for separation. Once the Board has interviewed and recruited – I am talking from practice, you know I come from that area – the Cabinet Secretary, should then appoint and gazette the three names recommended to him/her. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: No, I am not dropping. We can just cancel the word ‘appointment’ and say the ‘gazettement’. I know that separation is very important. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: If that is the case, then we can drop it. It will not alter the… view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move – view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: THAT, Clause 21 of the Bill be amended by─ (a) by deleting the word, “masters” appearing in paragraph (a) and substituting therefor the word “doctorate”; (b) by deleting the word, “ten” appearing in paragraph (b) and substituting therefor the word “fifteen”; and (c) by deleting the word, “five” appearing in paragraph (c) and substituting therefor the word “eight”. This is to give experience to the person appointed to the office of the Director General. Given that this is a research institute, it requires a person of greater experience. That is the import of that proposed amendment. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 22 of the Bill be amended by─ (a) deleting paragraph (b) and substituting therefor the following new paragraph─ “(b) develop an economic, efficient and cost-effective internal management structure’; (b) deleting paragraph (d) and substituting therefor the following new paragraph─ “(d) cooperate with other entities and organisations in the sector; (c) deleting paragraph (f) and substituting therefor the following new paragraph─ “(f) provide advice as required on matters within the Institute’s responsibility”; and (d) deleting the word, “of” appearing immediately after the words, “such other duties” in paragraph (g).

• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 23 of the Bill be amended by deleting the word “three” appearing immediately after the words “not exceeding” and substituting therefor the words “five”. Again, the justification is that we have been having CEOs appointed for three years. Before they even do a strategic plan, they are making their way out. So, we decided it is better for an institute of research to propose the five-year term as opposed to three. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 25 of the Bill be amended by deleting the words “as the Board may on the advice of the Salaries and Remuneration Commission determine” appearing immediately after the words “such terms” and substituting therefor the words “and conditions as the Board may determine”. It is to give independence to the Board. The Amendment gives the Board exclusive powers to appoint a corporation secretary who will be its legal advisor. view
• 2 Dec 2021 in National Assembly: Sorry. I think I have mixed up my notes. We want to give the Board independence. We are removing such terms and substituting thereof with the words “as the Board may determine”. We are giving the Board the independence to make those decisions on salaries. view
