    "content": "I am disappointed that the definition of “agent” is not in this Bill. We should have it. We should also have a clause tying those agents to certain ethical standards, and then, under another clause, the Cabinet Secretary will be mandated to make regulations to regulate agents who manipulate our youth and make them take the drugs, unwittingly. I say “unwittingly” because before the practice of doping, Kenya was already well bound. In fact, at that time, many of these people came here to study, for example, what the Kalenjin eat, which areas they stay and what makes them win. In other words, they acknowledge that there are natural abilities in our athletes; from Kenya and Ethiopia. It is only later on, that this became a profit making machine through doping. Therefore, the agents must be involved. Secondly, it appears that this is a legal issue. I hope it will be taken care of in the amendments. In the definition of clause, we have what is called Therapeutic Use Committee which is established under Clause 23. It just says, “there shall be established a committee.” Under the functions of the agency, particularly, Clause (7)(1)(j) states that 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"
