    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Article 118 of our Constitution requires that public participation be undertaken on matters of this nature. The Committee jointly placed an advertisement in the print media on Thursday 3rd November, 2023, inviting the public to submit memoranda of request. The advertisement indicated that the submissions were to be received by Thursday 9th, 2023, at 5.00 p.m. In this regard, the Committee received a memorandum from the Mau Mau War Veterans Association by the close of the submission deadline. The Association proposed that before the deployment of the National Police Service officers to the multinational support, there was need for a national prayer day to be held in Uhuru Gardens. This is a proposal by this body. As we advance and send our troops to Haiti, we must have a session of prayer. This is important. The Committee further held a meeting with the Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Interior National Administration and the Inspector General of Police on 9th November, 2023. During this meeting, the Cabinet Secretary made his submissions in respect of the request for the proposed deployment of officers to Haiti."
