    "content": " Yes. I am just making sure that we now support constituencies. Through the model we have put in place - the Talanta Hela Model of Talent Growth- from the grassroots, initially, our target has been the school ecosystems to work through schools and colleges. It is possible for us to sit down with Hon. Members and see how that can be integrated into the programmes that Members of Parliament run at the constituency level so that as we do constituency academies and athletic development centres, we can also see how sporting activities can be integrated into our broader Talanta Hela Programme. On sports tourism, we are doing very well. We work very closely with the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife. We are already doing programmes like the Vipingo Ladies Open at the Coast Region. By any stretch of the imagination, the Vipingo Ladies European Tour (LET) is a sports tourism package. As we prepare for the World Sports Championship (WSC) Safari Rally next week, we are working together with the Ministries of Tourism and Wildlife and Investments, Trade and Industries. When the elite drivers arrive this weekend, their first destination is going to be the Maasai Mara ecosystem, where they will use their presence to market the country to the world. Therefore, sports tourism is a product that we are pushing and deploying to expand Kenya's attraction to the rest of the world. I thank you, Hon. Speaker."
