    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I oppose this amendment. First of all, it is ambiguous. It just recommends imposition of a levy. What will the imposed levy be for? If we want to impose it on imports, we have to be specific and say that it will be imposed on imports. I agree with Hon. Ochieng’. The intention of this Bill is to revive or resuscitate the cotton industry, cotton growing and marketing and everything about cotton. So, we cannot begin introducing levies on anything. I support the idea that we need to protect our industries to create opportunities. If we have to do that, we should ban importation. We cannot begin by introducing levies. I oppose, Hon. Temporary Chairlady."
