    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I would like to say something about this petition. Indeed, Article 32 of the Constitution is clear when it comes to the issue of freedom of worship. However, as a Catholic, I know that there are Catholic schools which subscribe to the Catholic doctrine. It affects you even when it comes to eating – there are specific kinds of meals for specific days. Therefore, my humble request is that, as the petitioner presents his prayer to this House, there is need for him to attach the letter of suspension in order for us to establish if the students were actually suspended for the reasons advanced in the petition. This is because I have talked to the area Member of Parliament and I am informed that the suspensions had nothing to do with the issue of worship, and it was an issue of indiscipline. We do not want to bring matters of religion to this House. We would like this matter handled objectively, without the issue of religion coming in. That is my humble request, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
