    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, disease control is very critical. I think it is important to highlight the issue of disease control, because it does not just affect people in the northern Kenya, or those in pastoralists’ areas. If a disease is not controlled in pastoralists’ areas, it will kill the dairy sector. Even in the last Presidential Address to this House, the only thing that the President mentioned was the dairy sector. Even the dairy sector is threatened by lack of disease control. I want to thank the Minister for his emphasis on working with other stakeholders. I think we should also have a regional approach and work with our neighbours also, because we may have eliminated those diseases we said we have, but as you know Ethiopia has 45 million head of cattle and 17 million goats that can freely move into Kenya. So is Tanzania. Livestock production is another very important department. Those of us who keep traditional cows want seeds and modern breeds. The carrying capacity of the environment is no longer there for keeping too many cattle."
