"content": "This Bill is important because it is taking care of the Members’ welfare. There is negative mentality that Members of Parliament are very rich, greedy and self-seeking. We cannot think of others and fail to think about ourselves. It is important to note that Members of Parliament are mortal just like other people. Therefore, what affects members of the public equally affects Members of Parliament. I have been here for two years and at times, I meet former colleagues in the corridors and it is very discouraging. Some Members served in this House five, 10 or 15 years ago. However, the kind of life they live is like they never served in this House. The pain and anguish they go through is quite horrible. We stand at a time in history where we need to rectify this anomaly."
