    "content": "Thank you. I am talking about the amendment. You cannot exclusively talk about it without touching on the main Motion. That is because the way I understand it, all the police officers, especially those who have undergone specialized training, should be bonded for 10 years before they can leave and look for other pastures, whether green or not. The amendment makes the Motion better because some of the reasons why specialized police officers leave is because of exactly what has been covered in the amendment – that is their welfare, accommodation and so on. It is important that if we want to keep and retain people who have specialized in a certain field, we must look after their welfare. Otherwise, bonding them without looking after their welfare will be counter-productive in the long run. With those few remarks, I support the Motion as amended. I hope that we can carry the Motion forward as amended and pass it. Soon after that, we should convert it into a Bill to look after the welfare of our officers, especially those who have undergone specialized training.
