    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, you know because of this arrangement, I have to figure out where my amendments are. Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move; THAT the Bill be amended in Clause 2 – (l) in the definition of the term “parent” by deleting the words “who is liable by law to maintain a child or is entitled to his custody”; The definition in the Bill seems to suggest that a guardian is a parent. The amendment expands the scope of who a parent is. It also includes parents whose children are born through Assisted Reproduction Technology (ART), so that they do not have to go to court through court orders all the time. Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I had noticed at some point that my amendment may not be the way I had proposed it, if the Chair could listen. I will move it as a further amendment to read, “parent” means the mother or father or any person conferred parental rights by law and includes a mother or father of a child born through Assisted Reproduction Technology but shall not include a surrogate mother”.
