    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am not aware that lottery firms in the country are swindling the people of money. Lotteries are authorized, controlled and regulated by the Betting Control and Licensing Board under Section 36(1) of the Betting Lotteries and Gaming Act, Cap.131, Laws of Kenya. The lotteries are authorised to raise funds for, among others, social services, public welfare, relief of distress, patriotic purposes and recreational and sporting facilities. The Board is also mandated to ensure that all monies raised through lotteries are devoted to the object for which they were meant and that members of the public are protected against fraud. (b) The licensed lottery firms are Kenya Charity Sweepstake, First Lotto Limited and Anselia Holdings Limited. Anselia Holdings Limited operated for only nine months up to 28th February, 2007. I hereby table their balance sheets for last three years."
