"content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I beg to move: THAT, the Institute of Social Work Professionals Bill, (National Assembly Bill No.17 of 2023), be now read a Second Time. Hon. Deputy Speaker, the Institute of Social Work Professionals Bill has been there. People have been waiting for this Bill and today, I am happy to get the opportunity to introduce it. This Bill comes at a time when the Kenyan Blueprint for National Development, Kenya Vision 2030, is getting stabilized as the time goes by. A central pillar in Kenya Vision 2030 focuses on the social section within which various programs and services for the Kenya population are encompassed. Most of those programs such as child protection, social protection, care for our populations and other vulnerable groups in our communities are executed by the social workers. Social workers have been playing other significant roles in the sector, hence the envisioned law from this Bill will gradually strengthen their service delivery in our nation. This Bill will consolidate the overall focus of Kenya Vision 2030 and beyond. The Bill takes into consideration the importance of a strong social welfare service provision in Kenya. It has come at a result of long consultations with different stakeholders, including generic social workers, medical social workers, social workers in child protection, social workers in community settings, social work research, and social work education in our universities. Professional social workers such as the Association of Social Work Educators in Kenya, the Kenya National Association of Workers and the Kenya Medical Social Workers Association were all involved in the consultations. I want to thank Kenyans because during our public participation, so many Kenyans came out and contributed to this Bill. I want to let the House know, as well as Kenyans, who a social worker is. A social worker is a trained professional who provides professional social services to different individuals in need. He or she operates within a framework of well defined ethical code⦠The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
