    "content": "Thank hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Allow me to put it on record that I am a Member of this Committee. There are provisions of the Finance Bill that were also to be amended touching on the National Social Security Fund and National Hospital Insurance Fund. This is about the workers. The matter was referred to us as a Committee to deliberate and make a decision. Our Committee sat for long and mandated the Chairman to bring those amendments. I would have been so glad as a Member of Parliament to allow them, but let them be defeated by the tyranny of numbers before the Members. But for so long, the Members I have respected have deliberately withdraw the amendment like that. Parliament is represented in the Parliamentary Service Commission where their matters are handled. Whatever we have here is about workers’ money and we are talking about the representation of the workers."
