    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to start by thanking the two Ministers who have done a first class job, namely, the Minister for Labour and the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs for giving us this Bill on a timely basis. This Bill covers a very important sector. Secondly, I want to confirm that I am very comfortable with the term “Employment and Labour Regulation Court Bill”. The minute you make it industrial, there is a history of making it small. It gives an idea of Industrial Area. In order to cover a bigger sector of the economy, it is important that we use the kind of title that the Ministers have come up with. The reason as to why I support this Bill are that I see a growing need for this court. For instance, my Ministry has the Co-operatives Tribunal, which handles more cases than the labour tribunal. Given the title of this Court, my Ministry’s Tribunal could eventually become a department within the particular court being created by this Bill. So, let us look into the future, when the court being created will be expanded to cover more areas."
