"content": "skill that they can learn within the same period when they will be learning other things and it will be very useful. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I conclude, this country has signed and ratified international agreements and conventions that promote the rights and inclusions of People with Disabilities (PWD). Enacting sign language legislation can demonstrate a commitment to meeting these international obligations. It also includes provisions for raising awareness about the importance of sign language and deaf culture among the public and relevant institutions. I sincerely thank the members of the Committee on Education and my co-sponsor, Sen. Crystal Asige who will be contributing later when she comes, for insightful contributions during the consideration of the Bill. I also thank the stakeholders at large because we had a very vibrant public participation. I would also like to recognize in a very special way the Senator who worked with me in the last Senate, Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve, who was really a part and parcel of this Bill. We started the Bill with her and she did a lot of the contribution at the beginning because this Bill was picked in this Senate. I recognize her in a very special way. She did a very good job on this Bill. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you. I request Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale to second."
