"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. In substance, Hon. (Dr.) Oundo is right but human rights are rights to individuals and not just citizens. So, whether a child is a refugee or not, they have those rights. Under Article 53 of the Constitution, the rights of every child, whether a refugee or otherwise within Kenya are already prescribed. In fact mentioning the Children’s Act instead of the Constitution is even diminishing those rights because the children have more rights under Article 53 which is applicable to every child within the space called Kenya whether they are citizens or not. So, I would request that on account of that, that amendment is opposable. It should be dropped or we reject it. They are already catered from under Article 53."
