"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to encourage the Senators, and I notice from even the way this Bill is drafted, the Senators have some of the brightest legal minds in this country. The Senators are some of the people who have served the longest in this country. So, you can see that what went through here is not idle. It is actually very clever because one of the things they tried to do is that when you want to put the Women Members as the vice-chairs, then you are also trying to create divide and rule between us here in the National Assembly. I want to tell our Women Members that we want to support them for the Fund that is coming here. On the advice of a woman who was a Nominated Member, I want to tell you to be focused on what you want, either you want to be the vice-chair and be glorious or you want money to serve the people. If I were you, I would go for the money to work for the people. I will support you 100 per cent when that money comes here, that the women have a similar amount and if the Senators want, we will support them to have some little funds so that they are not idle."
