    "content": "Additionally, I looked at another clause with regard to the management of these institutions. We are saying that most of them will be coming up or will be built in counties. We are giving this mandate to the county governments because this is where teenage pregnancies are happening. As I support that, the stakeholders need to be cautioned. l like the issue of the penalty although I would like it to be higher. Those who will be taking care of these girls or this particular institutions, if any of them is found misbehaving, they need to be punished. The penalty should be very high unlike what my colleague has mentioned here. This will serve as an example. This is because most of them go as far as doing child trafficking. Teenage girls are being mishandled because they do not have any other option. You find people misusing and making business out of them. When I look at the punishment, it should be high in case one gets involved in such an act. When this Bill is passed, I hope it will be a lesson to those who want to mismanage and turn these institutions into business ventures. Otherwise, I support my colleague for coming up with this Bill. I hope she will take on board the amendments that are being proposed on the Floor because we want to adopt this, so that we can regulate and support our children."
