    "content": " Hon. Speaker, it is true that a medical officer intern has been in the university for six years, but architects have also been in the university for six years, engineers five years, and all of them graduate and become interns. Lawyers graduate and become interns, too. So, an internship is part of the training. When you graduate as a doctor and transition to an internship, you are under the supervision of a senior doctor. After one year of training, the doctor must approve that you are fit to treat another person. If I feel you are not fit to treat another person, I will make you retake the internship until I am satisfied that you can treat a person confidently and professionally without any supervision. This is part of the training. Whether you are doing a postgraduate or a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), you remain a student. There is nothing different. It is all training. I also want to correct the Leader of the Minority Party that Parliament prosecutes its activities through committees. We have already presented the Petition to the Public Petitions Committee, but as the Departmental Committee on Health of the National Assembly and the Standing Committee on Health in the Senate, we feel we can still prosecute some of the issues that might not have been addressed. We sought permission from the Speaker to sit tomorrow, unfortunately it will be a public holiday. We have again requested the Speaker to allow us to sit on Tuesday next week."
