    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to, first of all, congratulate hon. Millie Odhiambo for this very timely Bill. I have, on many occasions seen victims suffering. I have especially seen mothers and children who have gone to report their cases. They suffer in the hands of the law enforcement agencies. They suffer even more. They are already victims. Once they go to follow up their cases, they do not get proper support. Even after the case has gone through, they continue to suffer instead of them getting support, their rights and what they deserve. So, this Bill is very necessary in this country. It is a law which will come in handy in terms of supporting victims and giving them their rights. It is, therefore, very important for us to pass it as soon as possible, so that women and children, whom I am really supporting, do not continue to suffer. I would also wish that the environment for reporting cases is improved, so that people can have easier way of reporting cases. As the cases of victims go on, they should not suffer any more."
