    "content": "on that cannot be solved. The Committee should give us another Bill that is well thought-out that we can discuss. Let me say this to my female colleagues: Since 2007, I have always said that when it is a matter of gender, it is not a war between men and women. We should look at the issues in society that give rise to this. If we now set it as a war and all my female colleagues are saying it is war and we are going to fight, we will take it that way. Does it take this country anywhere? As we tried before, we should get together and sit down. I have been at pains. Off-the-cuff, I would have said: Let us finish the matter of the women problem. I do not think that is the right solution for the country. We need to look at the correct way of solving this. With regard to this matter, in 2012, a whole Cabinet Committee was put in place with four Ministers, Permanent Secretaries (PSs) and legal heads. It turned out that it was a mathematical problem which we have to agree on to either have a big Parliament or we change the Constitution. That is what we need to do. Therefore, we need a Bill that addresses all the issues so that we have an amicable solution. We should avoid the danger of allowing people to disrupt Parliament or arguing forever and not getting anywhere."
