    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, it is great that there are such emotions that even a Member can accuse me of shouting when I am queuing and waiting to contribute. I want to oppose this amendment. It is deleting all the prohibitions which are meant to protect the consumer. You remember that we are in a country where the level of literacy is low and where our mothers, when they see something in the shops, they know it has the Government approval. We are not going to lose the chance to have samples for demonstrations given when required. The amendment by the Minister, which will come later and is on the Order Paper, allows for demonstrations. To suggest, therefore, that health workers will have to buy samples for demonstration is actually misleading. This is a protection. This Bill is supposed to protect. Otherwise, we are not here to give mothers permission to breastfeed. We are here to safeguard those who use formula. We know that supplements are important because there are mothers who die when giving birth. There are mothers also who do not produce milk. We are here to safeguard, so that what they get is proper. I beg to oppose."
