    "content": "Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. As much as you say that courts are friends of children, who usually goes to defend children in court? Are they not Children’s Officers? I would have expected the retention of Children’s Officers. Where I come from, whenever there is violation of children’s rights, it is the Children’s Officer who takes the matter to court. Any other interested parties also take such matters to court. In fact, I am surprised that NGOs are included in this list, but not Children’s Officers. The NGOs should be removed from this list, so that they can come in under “any other person”. What about areas where we do not have NGOs? How do you go out looking for an NGO representative to defend children? Also, as I support, I would have liked to see the word “chief. Our children know chiefs more than the councillors, who have been proposed here. Therefore, I would have expected Children’s Officer to appear on the list. The NGOs can fall under “any other person”. There are no NGOs in some parts of this country. Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman."
