    "content": "It was shut down at the National Assembly on that basis. However, what is even more worrying is that naturally if a Bill is rejected in one House after having been passed in the other House, the natural consequence of that is to take that Bill through mediation. That is the natural consequence. I have not heard of any communication about any mediation on that Bill, and the matter has just died there. The ndengu farmers in this country deserve better. They are Kenyans. They want and deserve to be supported just as the tea, sugar cane, coffee and even livestock farmers. Let us remove partisan politics from the legislation because that will not help anyone. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I expected that at the convenience of this House, and perhaps when we resume, a mediation team would be constituted to look at the Mung Bill and see if there is any clause that talks about licensing of farmers. That would be the first clause to be removed from that Bill, but I can assure you that there is no such clause in that Bill. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, with those many remarks, and in recognition of the fact that we need to also transact some other business in the House, I second the amendments."
