    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to add my voice to this very important Motion that is dealing with ratification of the three treaties as presented by the Departmental Committee on Social Protection. First, I congratulate the Committee, the Chair, Hon. Alice Ng’ang’a, and the Vice- Chair, Hon. Hillary, for concluding the consideration of these conventions in the shortest time possible, bearing in mind that this is a matter that has been with Parliament for almost seven years. I listened very keenly to the Chair when she was making her presentation and also had a chance to look at the Report. These treaties will enhance the rights of children to access their parents. This is a matter that is happening in our country, where children fail to access their parents because of one situation or another. There are also cases of parents who are not able to access their children. It is not only women. There are also men who may not be able to access children who are with their female partners. Children also have a right to be taken care of, have education, shelter, food and love. I support this Report."
