    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to join Mr. Odhiambo in thanking the Minister for a very elaborate answer he has given. This is the way Ministers earn respect in this House. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to get one assurance from the Minister. In this programme of establishment of propagation and multiplication centres for fish farming, he said he has been allocated some Kshs1 billion or so and he is targeting 140 constituencies. I want his assurance that Garssen Constituency is one of those that is going to be in that programme. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is a problem in terms of catching fish which is not yet mature. In Kipini area which is part of Garsen Constituency, we have had fish trawling problem. The trawlers really deplete the fish resources in the ocean. This leaves the local fishermen who do not have the capacity or vessels to go out and catch as much fish as they should, living in absolute poverty. What plans does the Minister have to protect the local fishermen from this problem of trawling and therefore, over-exploitation which results into poverty for the people of that area in Garsen Constituency?"
