    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to take this opportunity to support this Petition. It is a very sensitive matter and I am wondering why all along this has not come to the attention of Parliament. It is something that should have been considered a long time ago to amend the Employment Act and all other relevant Acts of Parliament to allow for that. I do appreciate parents who go through this kind of experience. With no support, it can be very difficult. We have always thought that maybe the women who go through such have not actually had a birth, but you can tell that it is unfortunate the child died, or stillbirth was experienced, but the person has gone through the process, maybe even a more difficult process. This is a challenge to the Committee on Health or any other relevant committee to look at this matter and take appropriate action. I want to thank the Petitioner on behalf of other women. She is not just speaking for women, but also men associated with the same issues. Therefore, I support and hope that the committee responsible for this will expedite and enable us to quickly attain the prayers of this Petitioner. I thank you."
