    "content": "been addressed. We all know people who suffer from terminal illnesses and we must look at it. We must look at the issue of cash transfer especially when it comes to the older members of our society. In 2024, we had 1.7 million people registered under Inua JamiiProgramme . That money is paid through e-Citizen. I thank the Government for that initiative. Those people receive Kshs2,000 per month on their M-Pesa through the e- Citizen Programme. Safaricom and other agencies have done very well. I saw Safaricom deny their role in providing locations of the suspects when the police are looking for them. I want to believe them and to call upon Safaricom and other telecommunication companies in the country not to reveal any personal details because that will be infringing on the right to privacy. They do a good job, but we must deter them from going into an unholy alliance of revealing personal details of any Kenyan. Madam Temporary Speaker, you are a senior counsel in this country and you know that such information can only be provided when there is a court order. In 2023, 1.5 million people were under the Government social support of Inua Jamii Programme . They are under social programmes and I will just run through. There is the Cash Transfer for Orphans and Vulnerable Children (CT-OVC), the Older Persons Cash Transfer (OPCT) now known as Inua Jamii Senior Citizens' Scheme, where each receives Kshs2,000 and the Persons with Severe Disability Cash Transfer (PWSD-CT) Programme, which involves caregiving."
