    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. It was only with a light touch. We discussed yesterday and again, it is good to tell this House that, in fact, we intend to hold an ICT opportunities for persons with disability conference for all the representatives in the county assemblies. There are people nominated for that purpose. The Committee on Information and Communication is calling those people for a conference here in Nairobi so that we can be able to infuse them and for them to be champions on the use of ICT in the various counties in order to effectively meet this challenge of those who are challenged in one way or another. We will be able to see and discuss how we can use ICT, particularly the call centres, to see that the persons who are physically challenged are able to get jobs in those counties. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, through this Senate, I am also asking the county governments to give emphasis and to think thoroughly about how we are going to move forward in supporting persons with disability. I thank Sen. Njoroge and promise him that we are behind him all the way in supporting this amendment."
