    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I take this opportunity to thank the Members who have contributed to this Motion. The contributions have been immense and overwhelming. Chaplains will continue to play a big role in schools. We have teachers who teach many subjects and others who offer guidance and counselling services. However, they cannot offer these services adequately because they have other subjects to teach. Some schools have large classes of between 70 and 100 students. Thus they cannot offer any meaningful advice to children. The chaplains are not just for the students, they will also guide teachers, members of the communities as well as parents. In some cases, teachers and parents need to be guided on how to interact with students as they bring them up. Therefore, chaplains are very important. Chaplains will come from all religions so that even in a Catholic-sponsored school, religious leaders who are qualified and well trained, be they from the Muslim or Hindu faiths, can be deployed by the TSC to offer such services to our children while in school. With those remarks, I beg to reply."
