    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I take this opportunity to congratulate Hon. Sang for coming up with this very important Bill. Its objective is to make provision for training, registration and licensing of occupational therapists and regulation of the same practice. It is important for us to make some corrections when this Bill gets to the Third Reading. The primary role of that profession is to stabilise injured patients so that they can continue with their lives. We have cases where patients become very sick or are injured and become paralysed. Hon. Sang mentioned that, that training started in 1968. I cannot remember the class I was in because I was very young. Up to now, almost 400 people have been trained. That is a very small number and most of them have left this country to seek greener pastures elsewhere. That is because of lack of laws and regulations which made them feel frustrated."
