    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Bill. I wish to thank Hon. Mutua who is also my County Women Representative for bringing these amendments. This promotes the effectiveness of the original act to the sort of punishment that such perpetrators should face and clarifying some of the definitions that were either missing or were perhaps not clearly defined. Sexual offences include acts like rape and indecent assault. These are acts or crimes that traumatise the victims a great deal. Not only are these acts degrading but they are also traumatising. The acts could damage the victim psychologically forever. It is only fair that the punishment should be enhanced for those who are caught doing this. I also feel that this is an area that calls for concerted efforts from all stakeholders or sectors such as law enforcers, the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology and parents.
