    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, she understood me, but in the wrong context. I was speaking in the context of unions. You cannot be a union leader of bodaboda riders and you are not a boda boda rider; you cannot represent them. I insist that special needs education teachers need to be represented by special needs education teachers. You cannot be a doctor and represent teachers in a union because they do not understand the special needs of those teachers. My point and focal attention of my submission today is that we should stop deductions from special needs education teachers and remittance to that union until this matter is cleared up. Secondly, recruitment of members to such unions should be voluntary. This is because you cannot force members to get into unions. Members of this special needs union were forcefully recruited to that union, and it is not fair. The Constitution and the laws are very clear on how one should be recruited into a union. Therefore, we need speedy answers on the raised question by Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve. However, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) in the meantime, should stop any deductions of money from special needs education teachers to that union. Thank you."
