What is the quantity of subsided fertilisers stocked in NCPB depots across the country vis - à - vis the targeted number of farmers and acreage of land? 2. Could the Ministry consider giving farmers in the North Rift vouchers to purchase fertilisers from retailers at subsidised price of Ksh2500 per bag, in the event of shortage of the subsidised fertilisers at NCPB depots? 3. What mechanism has the Ministry put in place to ensure that farmers in the North Rift have received subsidised fertilisers in the next one week before the planting season begins? 4. What modalities has the Ministry put in place to enhance the effectiveness of the e-voucher system in order to minimise the long queues at the depots? I thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker.

Irene Mayaka","speaker":null,"content":"to end female genital mutilation by 2022. In November 2019, the Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action launched a National Policy on Abandonment of Female Genital Mutilation following a firm commitment from the then President on 4th June 2019 to put an end to Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) by 2022. The policy was aligned with the impetus to accelerate the eradication of FGM in the country. While the strides taken by the Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action in the eradication of FGM cannot be gainsaid, certain areas in the country still practice FGM. There is, therefore, the need for extension of the campaign to end Female Genital Mutilation to ensure total prohibition and eradication of all forms of FGM in the country. It is against this backdrop that I seek a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Social Protection on the following: 1. Could the Ministry provide a status report on the achievements that resulted from the campaign towards ending FGM by 2022? 2. What initiative did the Ministry put in place to sustain the gains made through the campaign beyond 2022? 3. What programmes has the Ministry initiated towards the sensitization of communities susceptible on the negative effects of FGM and the amount of resources allocated to achieve accelerated eradication of the vice? 4. Could the Ministry consider another phase of the campaign to end FGM in targeted areas of the country for a term of three years? I thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker."}]}
