"content": "I would go by what Hon. Millie said – that we either anchor it in law, or define how we are replacing it. If we are to anchor it in law, we need to know what its functions are. We need to be guided how else to know the functions it is supposed to undertake. This is why I am saying that it is after a lot of discussion that this Committee came up with the proposal to make it clear that there are three major arms of the country that look at children welfare. It is a sector with a lot of interest. I can confirm that the letter you are having or which came to the Speaker is one of the many interests that exist in this country. It is to ensure that we go back to the dark days when children used to get lost in Mathare Hospital in numbers. Children used to get lost in the Kenyatta National Hospital in numbers. We do not want to go back there. We need to come up with strong laws that prevent these kinds of things."
