    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I just thought I would use this opportunity to prompt the House that as we discuss amending the Cancer Prevention and Control Bill, we must remind ourselves that despite the fact that I brought a petition before this House in 2019 that could help us further prevent cancer by ensuring the removal of 262 pesticide products confirmed by world scientists and the persons who developed cancer as a result of those pesticides, they are still sold in this country. The persons in the United States of America and Europe got an order from the United States Superior Courts in California where the farmers were paid up to US$250 million for developing cancer as a result of the use of these pesticides. I want to request the Member who has brought this amendment to remember that if we are truly committed to cancer prevention, then we, first, need to stop the use of products that are known to cause cancer. This has been brought before the Pest Control Products Board The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor"
