    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to thank the Chair for that comprehensive report although it misses some critical links. When the Bill was stood down, the Ministry of Health’s Permanent Secretary, myself and the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Health, Hon. Sabina Chege, travelled to the United States of America to see how the Food and Drugs Authority is operating in relation to the American agricultural sector because one of the areas this Bill seeks to amend is that of food safety. It is not food security. What agriculture deals with is food security. It does not deal with food safety. In a layman’s word, what we mean by food safety is how safe the food that we eat is. For instance, you find that more often as you have meat, there are chemical preservatives that are used on meat. Are the chemicals of the required standards? Who monitors to see that the preservatives that are used on meat meet quality standards? Even the fruits and vegetables that you buy from the market are sprayed with pesticides The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
