    "content": "Thank you Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to support this Bill and also thank the Mover of the Bill for coming up with the Victims Protection Bill. It is long overdue. I support it because if you look at the board that is being formed, the Cabinet Secretary shall be responsible for the provision of facilities for persons with disability. Sometimes, persons with disabilities are never recognized but when I look at this, I thank hon. (Ms) Odhiambo-Mabona for coming up with that board and also thinking about people with disability. If you look at Clause 13(1)(d), every court room shall be fitted with special facilities for victims awaiting court room appearance. So, the courts shall also be fitted with facilities for persons with disability. If you look at Clause 13(3) where the property of the victim obtained by the offender in the course of the commission of an offence, then those will be retained and returned promptly."
