    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Indeed, as we look at how we want to ensure that we can make a difference when we discuss issues of gender, it is clear that to a large extent, those issues are due to lack of proper ways of engagement and recognition. As we talk about gender, it is not that it is an area that people do not realise that it needs to be addressed, but it is just the institutional mechanisms that tend not to be as prepared or as engaged with those that are charged with the responsibility of oversight. Indeed, it is true, as Hon. Millie and a number of Members have indicated, that in our practice to date, as we check even at commissions and bodies that have been singly or specifically seen to address issues of gender, the perception including budgetary and many other necessary support frameworks have not been appropriately addressed. Therefore, we need to make deliberate effort and be sure that we are not just making statements, but also providing the necessary resource backup and infrastructure to oppose. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
