    "content": "masks from. It was alarming the other day when it was seen on social media that there is a possibility of these masks being recycled. On health issues generally, the issue of quarantine and social distancing is also important; ensuring that, that is maintained very clearly. I have already mentioned about the cash transfers, and the other issue is the stimulus package for micro, small and medium sized enterprises. That needs to be infused. I think that this Committee can help by giving us very clear indicators of what has been done from the various recommendations. We will move to the Bill, but since this Committee is able to interact with the various stakeholders, this can come out clearly. The issues of social, public order and human rights, protection of vulnerable groups, for example, women and girls and abuse that might happen during this time and learning are very critical. Probably, we should be able to link with educational institutions, to ensure that online teaching is going on very well and congratulate many institutions that have already put this into place. The fourth thematic area, that is access to food, water and other basic commodities is very key. One of the messages that should be going out very clearly is that agricultural impetus should still continue in areas where planting can go on. As Sen. Kasanga said, we might find ourselves facing the problem of starvation after COVID-19. In the area of support services and crosscutting areas, the issue of prevention of infection is very critical. We need to find and infuse voice for these messages to be heard very clearly. I support, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
