    "content": "to add my voice that I support the Bill. Let us not leave out the Senators. Most Members have spoken about amendments they would wish to bring at a later stage. Let us not forget our medical cover after we leave this House. When you come to this House, you leave behind a lot of enemies out there. You create a lot of enmity as you come to Parliament. This is a House of fights. Always 70 per cent of Members fail to make it back to this House in a subsequent general election. It is important to note that during the 11th and 12th parliaments, we have had very young Members, many of whom were about 35 years old. It is important to consider them for some pensions when they get to 45 years. Previously, some politicians used to come to retire in Parliament. That is why we have great brains in this House.
