    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 2 of the Bill be amended- (a) in paragraph (b) by inserting the words \"brother and sister\" immediately after the word \"child\". (b) in paragraph (c) to read as follows- \"any dependant grandparent, parent, grandchild, or ward living in the same household as the refugee.\" The reason for the first part of the amendment to this clause is that there are many refugees who have immediate brothers and sisters who are under the age of 18, and the manner in which this paragraph was phrased in the Bill leaves them out of the family. The reason for the second amendment to this clause is that, in terms of determination of refugees, it is important for us to be able to determine refugee status, giving that status to persons living within one's household. When refugees cross into the country in the numbers that they do, it is difficult to determine who belongs to which household. So, the proposed amendment will help in the administration of the law we are making."
