    "content": "like sick bays, clean water, clean food and all those issues should be looked at and compared to the population in our schools. The third thing that I would like to say, and I had mentioned it, is the timeliness of taking action when something happens in our schools. I wanted to mention the issues of accidents, which Hon. Murugara has also talked about now that we are closing schools. We have just lost six students and four others injured this afternoon. The issue of accidents has really gone up across the country, and we have been losing up to 10 to 15 people across the country, and that is a big number. It is important for the department of transport and those involved to look at what is really happening. Hon. Temporary Speaker, we also have problems in our institutions where children are being beaten severely that they require life-saving surgery. It is essential to note that we have entrusted our children to schools, which should take care of them in return, rather than calling the parents to pick them up when they are gravely ill after being severely beaten. As I conclude, it is important for us to realise that we must punish mistakes and reward good work. This issue of transferring people to another school when they have not done something good does not sit well. Are you telling us that you have taken disciplinary action on whoever was responsible? We have seen it many times, and we saw it in Mama Lucy Hospital yesterday, where people were being transferred from one place to another. I think it is very good to work in Government because no action is ever taken, but the whole issue of transfers must be looked at."
