    "content": "I would like this House to note that whatever laws which have been governing gaming in this country are outdated. Therefore, there is mushrooming of so many games and lotteries which are not cultured, and Chinese boxes. They come in because we do not have this particular law. Once this law is in place, it will tame those unscrupulous business people who exploit that lacuna in our laws and bring in their own games which affected our children, households or families. They make some people poor and introduce our children into activities which they are not supposed to be in. This Bill has been brought up because the Board, through the Authority, will make sure that whoever is licensed to do this business has to pass through all the tests which are already in this particular Bill. I believe that my Chairman spelt out most of them, when he was moving the Bill. There are conditions for those who will be playing these games. Minors are not allowed to engage in gaming. We have the minimum amount which you should use to play. 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."
