    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important Motion. I commend the distinguished Senator from Machakos for bringing this Motion. Over the last one year, he has brought many such Motions. He should be commended for that. Since I have a very short time, I want to move an amendment to the Motion in the following terms. I beg to move:- “THAT, the Motion be amended by deleting the full stop at the end and adding the following words; “By establishing a specific insurance cover and scheme for that purpose.” I have been informed and stand educated by the distinguished Senator from Kitui, that, in fact, there exists life insurance policies for our men and women in arms, but more particularly in the armed forces as opposed to the police service. I cannot doubt him because he not only served in the defunct provincial administration, but was also a Minister in charge of defence during the last Parliament. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, if you look at this Motion and look at the amendment that I am proposing, the financial outlay for the Government is not much because it is just targeting the family, children and members of the Kenya national security organs who die in the line of duty. Whether it is in Somalia or internally, the The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
