    "content": " I thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute. From the outset, I want to support and commend the Committee for a job well done. When the ban on scrap metal trade was imposed, it left so many families with no food on the table. At some point, the business became a nuisance to the community, because it turned from scrap metal trade to metal business. I have an experience because there is a time my jiko was stolen. I had visitors and was lighting my jiko outside, but when I went to pick it I could not find it. I wanted to prepare food. I really got annoyed. All in all, we cannot say we are going to abolish the trade because so many people depend on it. So many hustlers make a living out of the business. What it needs is to be regulated. Therefore, I support the report. Public participation has to be done for the law to be put in place and for the business to continue. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity."
