Hon Professor Shiela Tlou: Condoms are not as readily available at distribution points as male condoms because this is a new family planning method which has recently been introduced in Botswana. A rapid roll out has been effected to reach all health districts through training of health workers,launch activities and road shows. The great achievement is that to date most of our health facilities or 511 out of 642 or about 80 percent of the facilities are distributing female condoms. It is imperative that we first equip service providers with the insertion and removal techniques, to enable them to effectively educate communities on correct use. The ministry is well aware of the need to empower women by ensuring not only the accessibility of both male and female condoms, but also the correct and consistent use.
