    "content": " The intention is good and I can see where the drafter is coming from. Probably, he or she has grappled with cases of second chances, how kids would go back to school but, honestly speaking, this legislation ought not to have come here. It should have gone to the amendments to the Children’s Act and the Basic Education Act. In any case, it is already provided for – that a child shall not be discriminated against – on whatever grounds. Those of us who are Members know that when children in our constituencies become pregnant, they are re-admitted back to school. We do not need any policy because it already exists. I am constrained and feel sad to oppose a Private Members’ Bill; but for this one, allow me to oppose. And if it proceeds to the next level, we will bring amendments that might leave it a worthless piece of paper. Thank you."
