    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this very important conversation. I appreciate the Committee for tabling the Report on the Floor of the House, and for the effort that they undertook to visit the area, further interrogate the matter and investigate, so that when they give us a report, it is one we can rely on. Sexual harassment is here with us. It is an issue that is deeply rooted in our society. It is a menace that cuts across the country. I agree with my colleagues who have said that it is not only limited to Kericho tea farms, but cuts across all sectors. We know of women in this country who have even been sacked or given show-cause letters and yet, no crime was committed, no disciplinary action was taken or no reason was given. They cannot speak about it. Even when they report, they are blamed by the authorities which are supposed to assist them. In fact, they are victimised. They are told that they are the ones with the problem. They may even be told that they were harassed because they were wearing a mini skirt. It is a problem that we have to deal with.
