    "content": "Parliament. I really do appreciate the support that we have got from the Ministry. It has managed to contain the situation. So, there is need for adequate capacity building particularly for livestock farmers, by providing them with public education and awareness, so that they can know about those kinds of diseases. At the same time, I think it is also important that when they recruit veterinary and livestock officers, the Ministry should be biased and employ more people from the pastoral communities, so that they can do surveillance and diagnose diseases. They will advise livestock farmers about common diseases and how they can actually prevent them. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, finally, I want to join my colleagues in appreciating the initiative taken by the Government, through the Ministry, on the off-take project. Although there was some allocation previously, many of our areas never benefited. That means that our quotas were being taken by other farmers. I think this time round, it is important that we get support from the Ministry, now that we are facing drought. I want to suggest that those funds be submitted through the district steering groups - where we are members - so that we can participate and educate our people. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
