"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to comment on this Motion. I wish to commend the team that went to the IPU Conference. This is a good practice and we should encourage it. When we send people to represent us, to engage, to learn and share the experiences with other like-minded countries, it is good they come and disseminate the information to us because all of us cannot travel. I am happy that the team that went took leadership positions. They were not there for joyride but they became active and participated properly. The forum found it fit to elect one of our own, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., who is the Vice President in the Wiper Democratic Movement, where I am a Member. He was elected as a co-rapporteur. That shows that they have faith in him. He showed skilled leadership and expertise. This helps me because we have been fighting for gender parity which is now being championed by one of our own and a man of the opposite gender. This means when I bring the Gender Bill or anything about women reproductive healthcare, people should not think I come from a different atmosphere. I am talking about the international discourse. These are things that are done by other nations. This will ensure we are not left behind. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I wish to commend the people who represented us at the IPU Conference. I have gone through the Report, and I support it. Thank you."
