    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, once more, I oppose. The reason I oppose is when you say that “the licensee has engaged in acts prejudicial to national security or national interests”, I presume anybody who engages in acts prejudicial to national security should be taken to court and the court should adjudge them to have engaged in that. The other day, we saw Hon. Joho being denied his gun licence. A political matter can be said to be against national interests. If you allow something like this to be a yardstick of determining whether a licence continues in force or it is cancelled, we are giving unnecessary discretion. Hon. Ababu has said that we have trust issues, but these are not trust issues. Every time we give discretion to anybody in authority, the result is always one in this country, that they use it for corrupt practices. I oppose."
