"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me apologise for putting my card on intervention. There was a problem with the systems. In fact, since yesterday they keep going on and off, so we end up having a problem being spotted by the Speaker. I want to begin by thanking the Mover of this Motion for giving us all an opportunity to interrogate the Bill of Rights upon which this Motion is based. The Bill of Rights is drawn from our very progressive Constitution, which puts us among the top in the land, other than a few grey areas in the Constitution which we expect that after that handshake maybe we will reach a point where as a country we can sort out those small issues. Our Bill of Rights recognises and protects fundamental rights and freedoms for the benefit of ensuring that there is human dignity and communal dignity. These rights and freedoms belong to each individual and are not, I want to repeat, are not granted by the State or even by Parliament. These rights and freedoms are subject only to the limitations that are noted within the Constitution. When you read Article 24 on the limitation of fundamental rights and freedoms, 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."
