    "content": "It should be noted that this country has no cancer research institution to offer help in screening the population that suffer from cancer. At this point, I want to indicate that there are many types of cancer. Therefore, unless we have experts who are capable of screening and diagnosing cancer and then we move to treatment, it will not be possible for cancer to be detected early and treatment instituted in good time before the cancer takes toll on the patient. In our Bill we have recommended that the country starts the Cancer Prevention and Control Institute. In this institute we shall have experts who will be able to indicate to the Government the spread of cancer, types of cancer, what population of this country is suffering from cancer and what type of cancer affects which region; that is, the geographical spread of the disease in this country. That will assist the Government to plan and come up with policies and funding that will make it possible for the prevention and control of cancer. Research will come up with possible education programmes for our children in school, so that they are prepared as early as possible to encounter and fight cancer. It will identify the causes of cancer and how we will prevent it. This is what we want our children to do."
