    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. I would like to thank Sen. Leshore for bringing it. The Senator decried that this Motion has spent about a year in the corridors of this House. However, in that one year, two things have happened. The Kenya National AIDS Authority Bill is being discussed in the National Assembly. This Bill seeks to change the NACC from its current status to a body corporate that will draw budgetary allocations from the National Assembly. In that one year also, the national Government has come up with a Kenya AIDS Strategic Framework. In that framework, one of the things is that HIV coordination units will be set up at the county level. There seems to be something that has happened in that one year period which tells us that we need to hasten Motions when they come to this House, so that good and noble ideas like the ones that Sen. Leshore has are not rendered irrelevant by the passage of time. Madam Temporary Speaker, I talk to this matter, not as an expert, but as a Senator of a county that leads in HIV/AIDS prevalence. It is not something that we are proud of as the people of Homa Bay County. When you look at the number of people living with HIV/AIDS in Homa Bay--- The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
