"content": "cases of sexual assault have been reported to the relevant authorities. The suspects are people who are well-known to the victims and the community. It is against this background that I seek a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security on the following: 1. Could the Chairperson explain what measures are in place to guarantee the safety of children, especially the boy-child in the country and, in particular, in Mtito-Andei area of Kibwezi East Constituency? 2. What is the status of investigations into the cases on sexual violence against children that have been reported, and whether the relevant authorities conducted any medical examination of assaulted children with a view to establishing whether they were infected with sexually transmitted diseases and putting them under medication? 3. What plans are in place to offer counselling services to the affected boys, their parents as well as other pupils and students in Kibwezi East Constituency? 4. What measures have been put in place by the Ministry to curb the increased cases of sexual assault and to bring to book the perpetrators of those heinous acts? Hon. Speaker, the statement request is presented to Parliament by myself, Hon. Jessica Mbalu, CBS, MP the Member representing the people of Kibwezi East on the Floor of the House today. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
