"content": " I am opposed to one particular amendment under clause 7(a)(2), whereby the Committee is seeking to substitute the requirement of two persons of the opposite gender representing small-holder coffee growers nominated by the umbrella body of the Coffee Co-operative Society by what the Committee is seeking to add large scale coffee farmers. Small scale coffee farmers usually have their own unions and umbrella bodies. But when you say large scale coffee growers, they do not have any union. If there is any, then that creates a conflict. Now, who nominates? In the 12th Parliament, before this Bill found its way to the Senate and died there - but now it has been revived there in and brought here - I moved this particular amendment so that the small-scale coffee farmers can have a say in the operations of the Coffee Board of Kenya. So, I believe we should leave it as it was, so that it is very clear. Who now nominates? Is it the large-scale farmers or the small- scale farmers? I believe this is the space. The small-scale farmers in this country have been missing for a long time. So, let us leave it as it is."
