    "content": " Thank you, Hon Speaker. I wholeheartedly welcome the Persons with Disabilities Bill, the reason being that, indeed, PWDs are extremely discriminated in this country. We are talking of over 1.5 million people. I have said time and time again that the right to dignity is the platform of all rights. When the time for the Committee of the whole House comes, I have noted that some amendments come through regulations, but it is my personal desire to see them entrenched in legislation. For example, issues such as service dogs for the blind being allowed in all public buildings. There are certain public buildings which do not allow service dogs. We are not talking about pets, but the seriousness of service dogs for people who are visually impaired cannot be ignored. Hon. Speaker, with those few remarks, I support the Bill."
