    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I know that Hon. Gladys Boss has been talking about this issue for many years. I have been listening to her in the House, but we do not seem to be making any headway. I also know that this House can use experts, including our local universities and professors. The Cabinet Secretary is saying one thing, Hon. Gladys Boss is saying another thing and other people will say something else. The scientific corpus may have different lineages and leanings, and even the industry players will influence the debate. Why do we, as Parliament, not ask scientists to come up with a small conference to inform us, so that we can make a decision? The Cabinet Secretary will rely on scientists in his office. I do not think he is a scientist in that area. He will rely on scientists in his office, who will give him information that he may not personally agree with. Hon. Speaker, let us to stop belabouring that point and look for a solution by asking professors to come up with a paper, so that we can listen to them and make a decision. We should not just make a decision from the perspective of what the Cabinet Secretary is saying. Parliament should make a decision and instruct the Ministry on what to do. Otherwise, we will keep on going back and forth."
