    "content": " Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I would like to take this opportunity to thank hon. Members who overwhelmingly supported this Bill. Out of the 16 or so hon. Members who spoke, there was no dissenting voice. This Bill has received overwhelming support and, so, I do not have much to say in response. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we set out to put forward, in this Bill, a proposal to create regulatory, advisory and district resolution bodies to support the implementation of the National Information and Communications Technology (ICT) policy. We also provided a regulatory framework for broadcasting which, hitherto, has been weak, if at all. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we also provided for licensing of certification service providers and our country's top level domain administration. We also went ahead to provide electronic transactions in this Bill. So, Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is a good Bill. It is going to be useful and I hope that the next stages of the Bill will be supported the way this has been supported. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am very pleased with the hon. Members and I do beg to move. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
