    "content": "Once, again, I support this timely and important Bill. It is not the first time that this issue is coming to the Floor of the House. It has been discussed before, although not much implementation has taken place. I, therefore, urge the Committee that is in charge of this Bill to look at previous legislations and find out why this has not been implemented the way it should have. Maybe, from that, we could have some amendments to this Bill, which will make it possible to be fully implemented. This is a useful and well-written Bill. However, I feel like there are some few areas where there are some gaps. For example, how will it be funded? It will be very expensive to fund all the services to be provided. We need to come out clearly on where the funding will come from and which department will be responsible for this. In our country Kenya, we have a lot of Bills and laws; some of which are still on the shelves and have not been implemented. I urge - I do not know if we have an Implementation Committee like we did before - that this Bill be implemented. Some of the clauses have been well covered. If you look at Clause 29, it prohibits the refusal to admit an older person into a home established by the county government. It states- 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."
