The Minister for Manpower (Dr Tan See Leng): Mr Speaker, Sir, I beg to move, "That the Bill be now read a Second time".

The CPF (Amendment) Bill 2021 is linked to the previous Bill in our Order Paper – Retirement and Re-employment (Amendment) Bill 2021. In the debate we have just had on that Bill, I have explained the amendments proposed in both Bills. Members have already raised their questions and expressed their views on both Bills during the earlier debate although they are still welcome to do so now, if there are any additional questions or views. Mr Speaker, I beg to move.

Question put, and agreed to.

Bill accordingly read a Second time and committed to a Committee of the whole House.

The House immediately resolved itself into a Committee on the Bill. – [Dr Tan See Leng].

Bill considered in Committee; reported without amendment; read a Third time and passed.
