"content": "successfully tackle this problem, this House should adopt a people-centred approach in formulating drug-related policies and laws with a keen focus on compassion, human rights and evidence-based practices. As I present this Statement on behalf of the Parliamentarians against Drugs and Substance Abuse Caucus, I am honoured to report to this House that the Caucus has already embarked on a journey to reinforce the fight against this vice. Further, the Caucus is in receipt of an invitation from NACADA to commemorate this day on Monday 26th June, 2023 at the Bomas of Kenya. Lastly, Hon. Speaker, the concerted efforts by the current administration spearheaded by His Excellency Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua demonstrate the severity of this menace. It is for this reason that I invite Members to join in the fight against drugs and substance abuse by participating in the activities of the day as organised by NACADA and support in creating awareness. I am requesting that we encourage Members on that day. I will be sharing in our group the theme for this year. I would also like to table the national survey on the status of drugs and substance abuse in Kenya."
