    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I beg to ask the Cabinet Secretary of Health the following Question: (i) What steps has the Ministry taken following the orders made by the court in Petition No. 266 of 2015 on reissuing of the standards and guidelines for reducing morbidity and mortality from unsafe abortions in Kenya and the national training curriculum for the management of unintended, risky and unplanned pregnancies? (ii) What steps has the Ministry taken to compensate the petitioner following the death of the petitioner’s child who had procured unsafe abortion and later succumbed as a result of complications that arose? (iii) Why were the standards and guidelines for reducing morbidity and mortality from unsafe abortions in Kenya and the national training curriculum for the management of unintended, risky and unplanned pregnancies withdrawn? (iv) What enforcement mechanisms are currently in place to actualise the provisions of Section 35(3) of the Sexual Offences Act so as to ensure that victims of a sexual offence may at any time access treatment in any public hospital or institution, given that the standards and guidelines that provided the enforcement mechanism have since been withdrawn?"
