    "content": "Why are you interrupting me when I am putting across a very good point regarding our police officers? Since we have the Affordable Housing Programme, we can start by improving their housing by allocating those houses to them. Imagine a police officer whose wife is in the village, or who is divorced, and their immediate neighbour is a police officer whose wife is around. The atmosphere would not be pleasant. Such situations would affect them mentally. Also, when a police officer dies, 50 officers are sent to send off their colleague, but they do not even have a good monetary contribution to offer the bereaved family. That shows how they wallow in abject poverty. When I was in Class VII, I wanted to become a police officer, but I changed my mind and pursued journalism after I visited my aunt. I instantly knew I could not cope. We empathise with their situation. We thank Hon. Masara for bringing the Bill. I hope something would be done this time around. Even as we debate and pass the Bill, in two months’ time or in the next budget, Parliament should allocate the police money for their activities. People will applaud us for walking the talk. Let us not talk only, but actualise our moves. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
