    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Bill. This Bill gives jurisdiction to subordinate courts and also increases the monetary value or the pecuniary value of cases that the Magistrate Courts can hear. This means that we are getting services closer to our people. As it has been said, we do not have High Courts in our areas and most of these matters have been handled by the subordinate courts. However, there has been limitation on monetary value and people who had matters that they wanted to be handled by the courts were unable to reach the High Court either because of the distances or other matters."
