"content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me the opportunity. I rise to confirm that, that is a very reputable security company. I am surprised by Hon. Simba Arati. This is an investor in his constituency. I thought he will protect investors who employ his people. Now, he comes here and wants to harass an investor in his constituency. This is a properly licensed company. The second thing that Hon. Arati must know is we are not an industrial court. The matters he is raising properly fit within the Industrial Court. We have been dealing with petitions and all petitions are just in form of comments which will be sent back to Hon. Arati and his constituents. I want to advise him as a lawyer. If he wants action to be taken, he needs to go to the Industrial Court where the rights of those people will be protected and enforced. So, he is trying to seek something that is in vain and he is not going to get any rights enforced in this House. Therefore, I think we are wasting a lot of parliamentary time. We can use it for something different. Hon. Speaker, I oppose this Petition."
