    "content": "The elderly people need their basic needs; that is, food, clothing, shelter and security. I am a very happy person to note that in this Bill, there is prohibition of abuse of elderly people, be it physical or even sexual. I am aware of many elderly women who have been abused sexually and that one pains a lot. This Bill will take care of that. Some of the elderly people are very strong and are very useful in our societies. They can still do many of the chores in the homes. They can still get a source of income and, therefore, they need to be supported and encouraged. If you look at this Bill, the priority areas need to be taken care of. This is where the budget comes in; and more budget for the same. For example, legal representation so that if they have issues to do with land or any of their property - knowing that each and every person in this country is free to own property anywhere... The elderly should have in mind that they own property. Sometimes their property is taken away. At least, when we have the legal representation for the same, it will be very easy for the elderly people."
