"content": "The organisation has done awareness programmes and monitoring of compliance with international human rights convention. It undertook pioneering work on trafficking in children that we passionately seek to deal with in this House. Because I cannot state all the work that the organisation has done in 20 years, I will table a dated version of the work it does. I wish to state very categorically that I am indeed a proud founder of the CRADLE. It is a feather in my cap as we have significantly transformed lives. Nonetheless, it is not my business. It is a public entity as a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) by law. I ceased to work there as the Director upon joining Parliament, even though I still offer some advisory role as a founding trustee. It has a management board and secretariat that are competitively hired. I have never desired to own a children’s home. My expertise is in law. The CRADLE has never, to the best of my knowledge, information and belief, been an adoption agency and does not intend to be one now or in the future. It is not in competition with the Child Welfare Society of Kenya as their mandates are very different."
