    "content": " I can explain the clauses that I am challenging. In sub-clause 31, it starts with “where a child is born out of wedlock…” Why are we starting with “where a child is born out of wedlock..?” That is against Article 53 of the Constitution. So, I am saying: “subject to the provisions of this Act,” because we will be proposing amendments to allow for differential treatment; this is so that we understand that there are certain circumstances where we may treat children a bit differently because of cultural sensitivity. I am adding at the end of that whether or not a child is born within or outside wedlock. In sub clause 2, I am suggesting we delete all of it because it provides categories. Where a child is born out of wedlock and the other parent of the child subsequently gets married, we are providing a different standard for children whose parents were married to each other at the time The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
