    "content": "I rise as a Member of the Departmental Committee on Sports, Tourism and Culture. Anytime we deal with international agreements, if we come up with areas that are offensive to cultures and contexts, we ensure that those who are engaged and participating along the line will look for the devil which is usually in the details. When we look at the committees that Hon. Ochanda said that we would register, we cannot ignore the Departmental Committee on Sports, Tourism and Culture. If we had more time, we would see the reason ICPD25 will go back to zero achievements 25 years later. One of them goes contrary to our Constitution which does not allow direct access to abortion, except in a context where it is deemed that the mother’s life is threatened. But because this is an international conference and we, in Kenya, had an opportunity to host an international conference in 1995, we have lessons of how we ensure that we allow global conversations to take place. However, we have a very sensitive framework to allow national commitments to be sensitive to the culture, be responsive to the contexts and not to contravene the Constitution."
