    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, first, I want to take this opportunity to thank all Members for supporting this Bill. I want to thank those who brought amendments to enrich this very good Bill, led by Hon. Ottichilo. For the first time we are bringing sanity to the management of private security providers. This Bill has stayed in the Office of the President for close to seven years. So, I am happy that the 11th Parliament has made sure that we pass this Bill. I am also sure that the over 400,000 security guards out there are happy that they now have a Bill that will guide matters of their welfare, including dressing and kits. Sometimes you find them in cold places with no special clothing like sweaters. I also wanted to remind Eng. Gumbo that Uganda is a quasi-military system. Do not talk about Kampala. Go to the northern part of the country, such as the Acholi region and the Karamoja. The whole place is militarised. So, let us not compare ourselves with Uganda. However, we have a few things to borrow from Uganda. I totally support this Bill. I want to thank Members in a very special way for supporting this very important Bill. Thank you very much."
