    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The Ministry has no policy on SFP. However, the National School Health Policy (NSHP) which was launched on 5th August, 2009 provides a comprehensive school health programme geared towards achieving better health for school children. Further, the National Food Security and Nutrition Policy (NFSNP) provides an overarching framework for food security, nutrition, nutrition education and hunger reduction for enhancing the SFP. (b) The SFP has increased school enrolment, motivated parents, reduced hunger and malnutrition, activated life, boosted learning concentration and improved performance in the ASAL districts, Nairobi and Mombasa slums. (c) The SFP was never piloted before it was implemented due to the Government emergency response to the 1979 drought that seriously affected school enrolment, attendance and learning. The Government requested the World Food Programme (WFP) to provide mid-day meals to school children in drought affected ASAL districts to alleviate hunger and encourage learning."
