    "content": "THAT, aware that the Kenya Police Service spends considerable resources on the training of police officers in all cadres; further aware that many of the police detectives are hired by other Government and private institutions as soon as they acquire their necessary expertise and experience; deeply concerned that, that results in delayed and botched investigations and failed conclusion of critical prosecutions plus a high number of acquittals due to perennial shortage of the specialized officers in critical departments such as ballistics, forensics, document examinations, fraud detection, money laundering, trans-national crimes and cyber crime; cognizant of the fact that private employers are able to offer superior terms; this House urges the Government to ensure that any regular police officer, Administration Police officer and prisons officer who benefits from specialized training at the expense of taxpayers’ money should serve in the police sector for, at least, ten years before leaving for the private sector or refund the public funds that were used in their training."
