    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, hon. Members also raised concern about the Rent Tribunal Bill which we intend to table before this House. I want to assure hon. Members that the Bill does not seek to protect rogue tenants. It seeks to streamline the operations of the tenants/landlord relationship. It also seeks to take into consideration the rights of each party. The Bill is intended to bring some form of sanity in the sector. We have heard cases where landlords have thrown out tenants. We have also cases where tenants have refused to pay rent. I think the Bill is structured in such a way that both interests are catered for. I am sure when it comes before this House, Members will have an opportunity to give their input on the many provisions that are contained in the Bill."
