    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me a chance to say a few remarks on this Bill. Firstly, I rise to support this Bill knowing that gambling and prostitution are two very difficult industries around the world to either control or eradicate. We know that over the years, criminal elements have always had a hand in gambling and those who know anything about mafia and the activities in the world will know that we are dealing with a very difficult industry. There is a good thing about regulating such an industry. It is important for us to know those who are in this industry. Where do they do this business? How are they using the proceeds that they make? In this country, many people are now gambling online while others are doing it in their residential areas. We no longer have a specific area for gambling. Las Vegas is a city that was built on gambling and prostitution. For this reason, it is important for us to make sure that as we allow gambling to continue, we must also make sure that we have the right regulations to control this industry. It is true that money can be raised in this industry."
