    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to say child sex tourism has become a lucrative business in the Coast Province. We know that in all the secluded areas of the coastal towns, there are a lot of things that are going on there, that are not in the public eyes or that we are not aware of. One of them is definitely that there are very many children who are trafficked through those avenues. Up to this point, we do not have any statute within our system to control this crime. That is why I say this is a Bill that is long overdue and we required it yesterday. These crimes are going on despite the existence of several international conventions. We, as a country, need to domesticate them. We have the international instruments like the United Nations Convention against Trans National Organized Crime, the Conventions on the Rights of the Child, the Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women and many others. I would not be able to mention all of them. But we urgently need these conventions properly domesticated in our statutes, so that we can use them."
