    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the Committee opposes the proposed insertion of new sub-clause (2) in terms of its content and substance. The provisions of Clause 20 already speak to the special manner in which women and children in particular should be treated by always preserving their dignity. This additional amendment repeats a provision which is substantively provided for in the Bill. Other vulnerable groups are catered for under Clause 21 Secondly, if you look at this provision, it is superfluous to the extent that beyond Clause 20, we have a right to human dignity under the Constitution. This is a right that is applicable to all human persons; not only citizens, but even refugees. We oppose."
