    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. Health is crucial. We need the health system to be perfect because it is not good to our body when we consume things that are unhealthy. The objective of the Bill is detailed. The guiding principle and implementation of the Act should be the protection of human life and health. On this, there is a statement raised by one of our Senators and is directed to our Committee on a harmful brand of edible oil, which is, sold to our supermarkets and retail shops. There is also a brand of sugar that is harmful to our bodies that is also sold in our country. If we had this Bill before, that would never happen. This Bill also touches on the county issues; on the functions of the county government. It specifies the implementation and enforcement of food and feed safety measures, licensing and exercising official control of the person who conducts food and feed business. They will also conduct capacity building on food and feed safety, public awareness on matters of food and feed safety and prepare the county food and feed safety report. This specifically tightens what we are supposed to do. If this Bill goes through, it means that the food we consume from the county to the national level will be very safe. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the rest has been elaborated by the Mover. I beg to second the Bill. Thank you."
