"content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, first of all, I wish to thank you. As I said, we just need to look at what the Committee is proposing. If you look at Clause 8(a), they propose to delete paragraph 2. We have said that paragraph 2 is about financial assistance. So, according to the Constitution, what is not prohibited is allowed. In fact, they are allowing financial assistance. Let us go back to the bit on deleting part “c” which is about demonstrating the use of a designated or complementary food product. Again, going by the rules of interpretation, what is not prohibited is allowed. So, in fact, they are saying “allow a health worker or a proprietor to accept from a manufacturer or distributor and to demonstrate the use of designated complementary food product”. We are saying that even when you look at the counter proposal, which is part “d” about renumbering the said provisions of (i), it is basically diluting it."
