    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance. The Assistant Minister has said that the consultants have taken over the work that the doctors have been performing. Is the Assistant Minister saying that the work the doctors, who are over 2,300 do can very easily be taken over by other consultants and, therefore, they have been redundant or something? Can this Government demonstrate to this country that one of the biggest problems we have is brain drain; that is training doctors at public expense, only for us to end up losing them to countries like Namibia, Botswana, South Africa and the rest of Europe? Is this not an opportunity for the Government to alleviate this problem and ensure that doctors are properly remunerated so that they can be retained? Could the Government come out clear and say that they will do this rather than adopt the kind of attitude it has adopted of ignoring the doctors and telling them that it does not give a damn whether they work or not?"
