    "content": "The other reason I support it is that it protects persons with disabilities, especially those with mental health problems. If we leave that to parents alone, we have seen horrifying scenes where we find patients tied to trees because there is nobody to take care of them. It also acknowledges the need to protect indigent persons, which is very good. The only concern that other Members have raised and which I am also raising is that it does not define indigent and vulnerable persons. Perhaps, it can borrow a leaf from Chapter 10 of the Children Act that indicates who those categories of persons are. The reason is that if we leave it that way that is when we will hear that this has become another Kimwarer and Arror dams, in that it becomes a cash cow that people will use by defining for themselves who those indigents are."
