    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Hon. Babu’s support had already been expressed. I thank all the Members who have supported this Motion. The Motion urges the House to make a resolution. When a Motion receives as much support as this one has, it means that the House has resolved that the Government must act. Therefore, I request the Committee on Implementation to take up this matter because this is already a resolution of the House. Secondly, I wish to sit with the legal officers and look at what the Members have contributed in terms of developing this Motion into a Bill so that it can have the backing of the law. I thank all the Members who supported the Motion and remind them that these are our children. Some of them are ours biologically. You cannot sit back and assume that the child who will be arrested and taken to a cell will be a child belonging to somebody else. It could be your own biological child. Let us protect all the children who belong to this country like they were our own children so that we safeguard them and their future. Also, as required by Standing Order No.53(3), given the situation as it is in the House right now, you should defer putting of the Question to a later date."
