    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Labour and Social Welfare concerning the management of Maendeleo ya Wanawake Organization which has been undergoing challenges. In the Statement, I would like the Chairperson to:- (1) Explain whether he is aware that the organization is planning to hold its elections in July 2014. (2) State whether he is aware that the organization has increased membership fees from Kshs100 and that those wishing to vie for various positions in the organization for the following categories are required to pay as follows:- (a) If you are vying for a position at the ward level, you are required to pay Kshs2,000. (b) If you are seeking any position at the sub-county level, you are required to pay Kshs5,000. (c) If you are seeking for any position at the county level, you are required to pay Kshs10,000. (d) If you are seeking any national position, you pay Kshs20,000. (3) Since the above criteria is likely to lock out many ordinary Kenyan women from vying for the various positions, could the Government intervene and order the organization to revert to the old membership fee of Kshs100 and refund the poor women who have already paid the new rates? Thank you."
