    "content": " Thank you for the information. I am just being polite and sympathetic to the promoter of the Bill. Obviously, being a young man, where I come from in our community, we do not put down a young man with harsh words. You allow him to ventilate and talk his heart out. Then, we, the elders, sit down and tell him he has spoken very well but that might work or not work and he needs to modify it in one way or another. I would suggest that the Hon. Member, through the Departmental Committee on Health, probably impresses upon the Cabinet Secretary or a medical body to clarify the practicing notes of the medical fraternity on the best way to actualise this process instead of bringing an unnecessary layer of bureaucracy. On this account, I am in pain but allow me, Hon. Temporary Speaker, to make a reservation about the workability of the process that is being proposed here and probably request the promoter of the Bill to relook at it. Now that he has heard Members and the Committee that received the report from the expert’s contribution, let him consider those issues as he rethinks this proposal. This is so that, as the Deputy Speaker has said, we do not legislate in futility on things that cannot be implemented."
