    "content": "Well guided. I was just trying to read through the details of this form so that Members can be acquainted. The Constitution provides for access to justice. Article 48 of the Constitution provides that the State shall ensure access to justice for all persons, and if any fee is required, it shall be reasonable and shall not impede access to justice. The process of filling the P3 Form starts in the police station, but sometimes takes a lot of time for that to be done. In some cases, a person may be frustrated for two weeks and decide to leave the matter. This is not fair. In some cases, one might even be asked to produce money for the form to be filled by the police officer. All these are extra costs incurred by a victim who is supposed to receive justice, which is accessible and affordable. In the course of getting this form filled, a person may go back to the police station several times. This includes the cost of transport to and from the victim’s residence to the police station. Some police stations are far. We are requesting and urging the Government to make the P3 Form accessible. Police officers should try as much as possible to respond quickly and offer fast services to our people, so that they can access justice with minimum cost if any. A person requiring these services may face certain challenges like proximity to police stations, access to the internet to download the P3 Form, poverty among our people and delayed justice as a result of frustrations in filling the P3 Form. There is a lot of abuse from the police. These abuses may result in people taking law in their hands. Once you fail to get justice, the only alternative is to either leave the matter to God The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
