"content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to also weigh in on this important topic on ECDE. The country has gone through tremendous transformation in the educational sector. I had the privilege of presiding over some of these transformations during my career and tenure as the Minister for Education. One of the fundamental rights that have been enshrined in Article 53 of our Constitution, 2010, is the right to everything, like the right to health and everything else. Article 53(1) is specifically dedicated to children. It states that children have a right to education, nutrition, shelter, healthcare and parental care. The population dynamics of this country indicate that we have so many birthrates in this country. These children need to have a place in the home, which is congenial, acceptable and healthy with the provision of basic needs of society. When there is transition from the home, where that particular child is born to the day care centre, we need to be extremely careful."
