    "content": "The National Employment Authority (NEA) was established and operationalized less than two years ago under your Bill. Therefore, the systems for registration and accountability for the agencies that take Kenyans to other countries is operating. Even there, they have budgetary challenges. The budget for reinstitution is yet to be strengthened so that they can employ competent staff to perform the oversight work and contact the people who go out of the country. Therefore, is it true that the situation has improved in the last five years and most of the victims went there five years ago? I agree with most of the recommendations of this Report as read by the Chairperson of the Committee and the seconder, Sen. Kihika. The observations and recommendations of this Committee are upped. I totally agree on the part of lack of comprehensive policy and legal framework useful to guide this process. Most of the things that I have alluded to will be properly captured if we have a proper legal framework. We are the ones to establish the proper legal framework. It is either the Committee sits down and comes up with this legal framework or work with the Ministry to improve its Bill and table it in this House. We are talking about the growing number of migrants to the Middle East. Therefore, we need to deal with the recruitment process, agencies and their oversight of the same."
