    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. This matter that we are canvassing is very serious. I have listened to comments by colleagues on the need to properly place and advance the issue of mental health in our communities. I note with concern the very comments made by Sen. Mumma, who may misconstrue the exchange that we had earlier, to think that we do not give this space the seriousness that it deserves. For her comfort, I wish to assure her that mental health matters. As leaders, it is in our place to advance and advocate for its proper placing in society, ensure that we have facilities available for the victims of mental health challenges in whatever format. I wish to challenge Sen. Kibwana to take up the mantle that was left by a former colleague, Sen. Kasanga. During her tenure here in the Senate last Term, she distinguished herself and spoke and reminded us on World Mental Health Awareness Day and pushed many policies. Unfortunately, many of those policies have not come to fruition. By way of Motion, she had a Bill on the same."
