    "content": "(b) So far, only one location in Gwassi Constituency, namely, Kaksingri West, is covered by the programme. This location was identified using the following criteria: Poverty index which indicates that 72 per cent of the locationâs population lives below the poverty line; and intra-district, regional/locational balancing. The other beneficiary location is Suba District in Gembe East which is in Mbita Constituency with 392 beneficiaries. The criterion used for identifying beneficiaries of the Cash Transfer Programme to Older Persons has various components: (i) Geographical area factors which include use of Kenya Integrated Household Budget Survey (KIHBS) of 2005/2006 data which ranks districts in terms of poverty prevalence. (ii) District selection based on HIV/AIDS prevalence. (iii) Regional balancing to ensure provincial equity. (iv) Beneficiary eligibility criteria. To be eligible, an older person must be aged 65 years and above. Other criteria considered are household-based and include: (i) The household has to have a person of 65 years and above. (ii) Be extremely poor. (iii) Must not be enrolled in any other Cash Transfer Programme. (iv) The old person must not be receiving any pension. (c) The rationale of targeting older persons aged 65 years and above is that they tend to be poorer due to diminished production ability; most of them take care of orphans; they lack regular income particularly those who have had no access to formal employment. The factors considered while prioritizing potential beneficiary households include: (i) Number of orphans and vulnerable children in the household. (ii) Number of persons with disabilities in the household. (iii) Age of the oldest member of the household. (iv) The poverty level of the household. (v) Number of chronically ill persons in the household. (vi) The highest level of education of the household head. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, while applying the above-mentioned criteria, the process of community-based targeting is used. This entails the involvement of community members in identifying the beneficiaries by mobilizing community members; participatory formation of locational committees; identification of beneficiaries by locational committees; and community validation of the identified beneficiaries."
