    "content": "I want to commend this Committee. It has done a great job. We are all aware of many lives that have been lost, especially in slums, estates or villages where houses are close together. We know that we have had families fighting at night but because no one is responsible, no one has reported. It is only after death that someone says they wished they had reported. There was no legal framework to guide any person to go and report. The issue of the police is a good thing. We do not want to condemn our police. We are here as this House to improve the status of any organisation. So, if our police have not been performing, time has come for them to be trained well and given responsibilities. If we are going to give the police responsibilities concerning families, this is a great move. It is encouraging that our policemen and policewomen can also be trusted. We are going to start seeing the trust from there so that when we find them on the road, we can trust them."
