"content": " Order, Senators! I want us to move on. Sen. Karaba, I hear where you are coming from. However, the point raised by Sen. Wetangula is extremely important. Even in law, there is an age below which neither a boy nor a girl can consent to sexual conduct. So, when you say that you want to go and check whether it is the boys or girls who are wrong, vis-à-vis the teacher, I believe the point made by Sen. Wetangula is valid. It cannot be a relationship because a relationship is by consent. However, if there is an overture by a teacher and the child is below 16 years, then there cannot be a relationship. So, you need to appreciate that below a certain age, you cannot consent. So, even if you do your own research and investigation, you will find that child is still innocent of consent. This is because children have no capacity to consent. That is the point being made. Sen. Karaba, if that is what you said, then, of course, it will not be expunged, but it is a wrong statement to make. It will be out of order on the face of it. That is a matter of law and I will let it rest at that. Hon. Senators, if all of you wanted to raise the issue with Sen. Karaba, I think Sen. Wetangula has done it on your behalf. So, we shall proceed. Sen. Khaniri, are you seeking a Statement? OUTBREAK OF MALARIA IN THE WESTERN REGION"
