"content": " Thirdly, that particular authority should have the power to intervene in case of national emergencies around food safety. It should also have enforceability powers which, regarding food safety, should include enacting food safety regulations, creating food labeling policy to provide adequate information on food, and managing farm inputs, what my Hon. sister from Suba North called traceability. Finally, because there is not much time, I am trying to put my thoughts on record so that we can debate them later. We should separate, as the Honourable Member said, food regulation from feed regulation. They are completely different regarding the qualifications of who needs to oversee them. The proposed National and Food Safety Authority should recognise traditional methods of food preservation as well as modern ones. I have done it in a rush simply because there is not much time. Still, as somebody with experience in creating an over-arching institution in the environmental sector, I can assure the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party that this is not good work. It should be withdrawn; we start afresh and create a National Food Safety Authority. I thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
