    "content": "Hon. Dennitah raised a very fundamental issue on free deliveries – what about mother to child HIV transmission? I am sure in all our health facilities that issue has already been taken care of. However, I am sure more funds should be given to make sure that even that specific element within the deliveries must be taken care of. On the Women Enterprise Development Fund (WEDF), I want to tell my good friend, hon. Dennitah, Member for Migori County that the Jubilee Government is a Government that respects women. I am sure the WEDF will be structured and the leadership of this House will play a very fundamental role in the disbursement of that fund. It is about leadership. Hon. Speaker, finally, I will come back to that critical issue between the Chairman of the Police Service Commission, one Johnston Kavuludi and the Inspector- General (IG) and the conflict between them. That conflict is very real, it is not perception. I am sure the Government is bringing an amendment that we will look at and it is not a choice that we have two centres of power. We need to go the way of the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) where we have the Chief Justice as the Chair of the JSC and the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) where the Speaker is the Chair. We need to give in if the House and the country decide that we have one centre of command and one centre of power. When those amendments come, I am sure the issues raised by hon. Gumbo will be discussed. However, that is real and it is having an impact on the security situation of our country. Hon. Speaker, I think I am done with that. Once you have more requests, then I can have a second round to answer that same question. Then there is issue of Chinedu. When the time comes, we will discuss Chinedu is a very comprehensive way."
