    "content": "(Mr. Keya): Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) My Ministry is aware of the increased number of street children and street families in Nakuru Town. (b) The Government has put in place various programmes and facilities to deal with the influx of street children in Nakuru and other towns. Those efforts are collaborative where other Government agencies as well as development partners are involved. They include:- The operationalization of three cash transfer programmne to vulnerable groups, that is, older persons, persons with disabilities as well as orphans and vulnerable children who happen to be the main source of persons living in the streets. Those social protection programmes encourage potential street people to stay in formal families and communities where they may access the cash. We have established a Street Families Rehabilitation Trust Fund under the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and Ministry of Local Government. (c) My Ministry, in collaboration with the Trust Fund, is undertaking a programme of establishing child protection centres countrywide, which are to be used as fronts in a co-ordinated support system for street children. Already, such centres have been operationalized in Garissa, Eldoret, Malindi, Nakuru and Mombasa."
