    "content": " Hon. Speaker, you have said it well. I told Hon. Sankok to allow Members to have free thoughts. So, Hon. (Ms.) Nyamai was right. When she was the Chair and I was the Leader of the Majority Party, we tried to bring Government together, namely, the Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Health, Principal Secretary Mochache and PS, (Prof.) Boga. We tried to ask the Government to bring their amendments to this Bill. Even the Departmental Committee on Health, without imputing any improper motives, their interest within that Committee... That Bill is so voluminous. A lot has gone into it in terms of research. It touches on very critical sectors of the economy particularly health, the Pharmacy and Poisons Board, veterinary, vaccine production and basic things. It is very unfortunate, and you need to give direction that the Bill comes to the House. Just like they used to do previously, they would bring their amendments through the Leader of the Majority Party or the Chairperson, but that Drug and Food Authority Bill is important. It should come. It is two years now and you should give that direction."
