    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to oppose this for reasons advanced by colleagues. I want to ask the Committee to be very careful in terms of what we bring into law. If we cannot enforce what we are bringing into law, then we have failed as a Parliament. When you say financial assistance, but qualify only financial assistance for scholarships, we are basically saying that for scholarships, you must disclose, but if you receive any other financial assistance as an inducement, you are not expected to disclose. In trying to get out of this, the Committee has complicated the matter even further. For that reason, I would rather be safe by sticking to what is in the Bill and not what we are going to bring in. Then we are going to have a situation where our health workers will be arrested every day. Also, I want to emphasize the point that we need to know where we are coming from, where a health worker tells a mother what she can do, how do you distinguish between demonstration and getting the mother to stop breastfeeding and use the formula because her breasts will sag as we were being told last time? Let us know where we are coming from. Let people go to the shops and buy when they have the information. Let them not receive that information from the health worker."
