    "content": "The Bill has also put in place clauses to govern the mode of advertising in the media. Most of our media like television and radio have been spending most of their time advertising games until we have almost made this country a gambling country. Instead of people looking at other important issues on TV and radio, they have been waiting to hear which game is being played where or who won what so that they can be enticed to do the same. This one has been rejected by the Bill. Therefore, there will be times to do those adverts and, more so, there will also be limitations as to what extent you should display the winners, losers or the amounts they have won. In that case, we will reduce affinity to run into gambling which is a vice which can be very tempting and disruptive within the community. All these features are in the Bill. As a member of the Committee, I feel the input of this House will be very important. The Bill is not sealed as some of the speakers have said. There is a window to improve it .That is why we have brought it to this House so that Members can also debate the same and also punch holes 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."
