    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let us get back to our senses. This Bill has already passed Second Reading. We are past that stage; we cannot stop. We have to continue with it. It is good that we continue with it tomorrow. It is about breast milk substitutes; how to regulate them. It is not about breastfeeding. It is about breast milk substitutes and complementary feeds, how to regulate them. It is not about breastfeeding. Secondly, whenever we make laws in this Parliament, a good law protects the weakest members of our society. In this case, the weakest members of our society are children. The weakest of the weak are those children whose mothers have either died at childbirth or do not have a mother to breastfeed them for that matter. So, a good law has to protect the weakest. That is what this law is aiming to do. I realize as we talk that a number of hon. Members have not taken the opportunity to read this law. I plead with you, as you go home read it. Thank you."
