    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, there is also the question of discipline and overloading of the curriculum in our schools. There is also the question of allowing our children to access programmes that come on the television. Part of what the Kenya Communications (Amendments) Bill wanted to address was to reduce graphic images of certain aspects that we believe are not fair for our children to watch, particularly during prime hours before they go to bed. Given that there is no proper regulation, you will find all sorts of things being shown on television screens. You find films that actually glorify indiscipline in families and work places. Those films are accessed by children. Then, our children would think that it is a good thing to repeat in their schools by burning them. That has become a big problem. I am happy that the Committee was able to identify that issue. It is very critical that certain contents of programmes in our TVs that are watched by our children should be regulated. The media houses should regulate what is regarded as a disservice to our children."
