"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also rise to support my sister, Hon. Dorothy, for moving this Motion. Hon. Sitienei just spoke my mind because I also want to encourage the idea of coming up with a database of persons living with extreme disabilities and their caregivers. I support this Motion because most caregivers usually leave gainful employment to dedicate their lives and time to the people that they support. In addition to the support they will get from the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection, they should also be trained on first aid because it is also very important when dealing with persons with disabilities since anything can happen. I support this Motion and thank Hon. Dorothy for bringing it. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

Dorothy Ikiara kuwa Serikali iwape marupurupu wale wanaowahudumia walemavu ili wanapowachunga, wawe na kitu kinachowasaidia kuwahudumia katika hali nzuri. Hili ni jambo zuri. Ningependa kumuomba Mhe. Dorothy abadilishe Hoja hii ili iwe sheria na ahakikishe kuwa the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection iunde Regulations ili tusipitishe tu Hoja hii ilhali wale wanaotoa huduma hawapati marupurupu yao. Tutakuunga mkono wakati huo ili tuhakikishe kuwa Hoja hii iwe sheria ili wanaohudumia walemavu wapate marupurupu kutoka kwa Serikali."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I beg to reply. First and foremost, I thank Hon. Injendi, who seconded this Motion, and all the Members who have immensely contributed to it. This Motion seeks to implore the House to resolve that the Government, through the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection, recognises primary caregivers or persons with severe disabilities as a distinct category requiring social protection and support; and to further develop and implement a cash transfer programme for these primary caregivers. Article 21(3) of the Constitution of Kenya provides that all State organs have a duty to address the needs of vulnerable groups within the society. Article 43 asserts that every person has a right to social security and requires the State to provide appropriate social security to persons who are unable to support themselves and their dependents. It is on this note that I am seeking that the 0.9 million Kenyans who live with a form of disability and their caregivers are supported. A critical challenge that limits the advancement of societies, particularly for the global countries like Kenya, supporting caregivers of those with severe disabilities goes beyond individual benefits. It is important to note that this support fosters social inclusion, promotes equality, strengthens communities and contributes to economic growth. Investing in caregiver support is not just about kindness. It is a smart decision with far reaching positive impacts for everyone. Hon. Temporary Speaker, in a country like ours where economic activities are limited, and money is very scarce, it is always good to think about those who are less fortunate than us. By supporting caregivers, we can build a stronger community with a richer social fabric and reduce the strain on public resources by preventing unnecessary institutionalisation. Politically, it will foster increased civic engagement. Public participation enshrined in Article 10 as caregivers, will have a more bandwidth to contribute to nation building. I have taken the sentiments of Hon. (Dr) Pukose and Hon. Kiarie, the Member for Dagoretti South, who implored that we take this Motion to the next level and have a Bill. When that time comes, I will seek reference to experts so that we realise the dream of giving the caregivers a comfortable life. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I reply and thank all the Members."
