    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I rise to oppose this amendment by the Committee for very simple reasons. I think we are trying to over-protect the State. It goes to negate almost all the other five provisions of that clause. If we say that proceedings can go on when there is no legal representation, what comes in mind is this: If an injustice were to occur because you have no representation, then it is double- speak. On one hand, you are saying you want to protect the children and, on the other hand, you are saying you can proceed or you want to protect the criminals. This provision makes the other five provisions of that clause null and void. So, I oppose."
