Madam Speaker, I believe that mothers should have a choice. I never said that they should not. They should have a choice to work. I also believe they should have a choice to remain in the home. I believe that opportunity is rapidly diminishing. I think this is where the government comes in. Its intended expenditure over the next years is going to put greater demands on the family, on mothers and on fathers. It is here that I believe the choice is going to be lost.
In reply to this equality balance, I believe that it is diminishing whether we like it or not. Governments should quickly do something about it and can do something about it in this Parliament.
