    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think the point of order by Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. has actually settled the Senate now. This is because, at that point when I was speaking, people were moving up and down, in and out. It was an extremely disruptive process. But, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I said earlier, I support Sen. Njoroge’s amendment to ensure that we insert a clause that guarantees persons living with disabilities opportunities within counties. It is also incumbent upon the 47 county governors to ensure that we enforce the policy and legislative frameworks. Even if these policies and legislative frameworks might be in the process of being developed, nothing impedes any governor or the President from ensuring that they effect, enact or put into place the kind of policies that will ensure that persons who live with disabilities are accorded the right to work and to enjoy the benefits. Therefore, this amendment will guarantee that we can take care of the persons living with disabilities from the point of education to the point of employment. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to support."
