In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Apprise the Senate on the status and welfare of baby Junior Sagini, indicating measures the Government has taken in ensuring adequate provision of all his basic needs. (2) State mechanisms, if any, that the Government has put in place to ensure effective and efficient response to reported cases of child abuse, neglect and violence at county and sub-county levels. (3) Outline the plans, if any, that the Government has put in place to provide for specially-trained and designated public prosecutors to handle cases of child abuse and in ensuring the child protection centres are managed by trained counsellors. (4) Shed light on the loopholes and challenges affecting the realization and implementation of comprehensive child protection services in Kenya. (5) Recommend measures that can be adopted to increase public awareness and sensitization on the widespread challenge of child abuse, neglect and violence in Kenya. My other Statement is as follows."
