"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, if you look at Article 53(1)(e), the people of Kenya said this of their children: That every child has a right to parental care and protection which includes equal responsibility of the mother and father to provide for the child, whether they are married to each other or not. In some traditions and cultures of our country you have heard some people say, “Kitendo chaweza kuwaharamu lakini hakuna mwanaharamu”. By dint of this provision we are putting all children at par. We are saying that these rights embodied in the Bill of Rights in Article 53 will vest in all children, whether their parents were in marriage when the child was born or whether they are not. We are bringing that parity. This brings me to my concern and, therefore, the Bill. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
