Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, girls will also have access to adequate sanitary towels amongst other things. This is usually a major challenge. Girls do not go to school because they lack some of those facilities. We know that this could be considered a luxury in those areas. Science has proved that children start their menstrual periods at tender ages. Some even start at the age of seven or 10 years in their early primary school going ages. So, when they are provided with all these items, they will be comfortable to learn and achieve the levels that they want. These are marginalized areas. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, as the Mover has clearly stated, this is a very lawful Motion. Article 56(b) allows that. This is affirmative action which the national Government must take to support the communities. Once these boarding facilities have been put up, naturally security must be beefed up. When you ensure there is security it means that many people will leave around an area and other facilities such as hospitals will come up. Before we know it, a city will have developed.

With proper development poverty will be eradicated. This is surely the best way forward. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I beg to second."
