• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: When it comes to sponsoring gametes, they should be donated by people between the age of 21 to 50. This means that the gametes that will be donated will not bring forth a baby that is deformed or that cannot survive outside of the womb. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: This Bill states clearly that there is no compensation for the sponsor of a gamete. A gamete sponsor should not think that they will be compensated. There is no relationship between the gamete sponsor and the baby that is born. The baby to be born will get his or her rights as a child as stipulated in Article 53 of the Constitution. Madam Temporary Speaker, this Bill also allows for surrogate mothers. It legalizes surrogate motherhood. The surrogate mother is supposed to be informed in advance and to sign forms before a lawyer, so that she should not have any ... view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: This Bill also talks about reproductive health of adolescents who have many times found themselves in problems. Adolescents need to be given mentorship programmes so that they get to know about their reproductive health. They also need to be guided morally because they lack information. For example, in a home set up, parents bring up their children but may not have the courage to talk to them about contraceptives or issues of surrogate parenting. However, this Bill speaks to that issue. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: The Bill also speaks to the issues of HIV in adolescents. We should also recommend abstinence in adolescents until such a time when they are of age.

A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: This Bill mostly addresses the female. Sen. Kihika also needs to address the male. In the event a girl is impregnated, what should be done? There should be a fine for the person who does this. Most of the times, girls are criminalized for aborting or selling their children. This Bill rectifies the wrongs that are happening in society. I know that it will see the light at the end of the tunnel. Mostly, women suffer when it comes to issues of infertility. You will find a husband going out to experiment to find out whether he is able to ... view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: The good thing about this Bill is that the national Government cannot work as a stand-alone. It recommends that the national Government should work with county governments to ensure that Article 43 of the Constitution is effected so that there is maternal healthcare. The personnel who will execute this should be trained and skilled. Counties should also be facilitated in order to come up with equipment that will support maternal health. This Bill also ensures that we have less mortality rates in the counties. view
• 2 Jun 2020 in Senate: I second this Bill which will not only help women but families as well. Thank you, for giving me an opportunity to second this Bill. view
• 26 May 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker for giving me a chance to add my voice to this Statement. I want to congratulate Sen. Wetangula for coming up with this Statement. Truck drivers are suffering and there is need for us to realise that they also have rights like anybody else. They are eking a living and they need to be cushioned. There is need to see to it that during the snarl-up, there is provision of water, soap and food so that they are cushioned. These truck drivers have primary needs just like everybody else; they would like to go to ... view

• 26 May 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I want to support this Statement. There are some farmers who are hands-on the job, but they lack the awareness of how to treat animals. Those who keep chicken have problems because if one gets sick, the rest are infected and end up dying. We need to see how to help and encourage our farmers. If they are keeping livestock, they should know what to do in the event one gets sick. Those who keep chicken should be enlightened on what to do. This is something that the county governments need to take up as ... view
