    "content": "There are so many issues affecting our women that need to be given a lot of support ranging from financing their activities, organising them in terms of groups and making sure that they participate in the community activities at the local and international levels. It is right that we all support this lady because there is something that she is going to do. The President did not make a mistake. He rarely makes. This was a good bit. As all of us are talking, there are so many issues that need to be given a lot of prominence. This ministry and this department, as my colleagues have said, is going to handle a lot of issues. I am very keen. I come from the famous wheat and flower growing constituency in this country. There are so many women who work as labourers in the flower farms. I will bring to the attention of the Chairman of this Committee that there is need to investigate what is happening in some of these flower farms. The treatment of women and the chemicals that are being used by the flower growers is affecting their reproductive health. At the appropriate time, we will expose the activities of some of these farms. I hope Madam Kwekwe will take up this issue very seriously because as a community and as a leader, we have seen a lot of cases of women working in those flower farms having miscarriages. Many of them are losing their sexual power and they are not given the sanitary facilities that they require. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
