    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I take this opportunity to thank Members who contributed to the Motion on Ratification of the Agreement on Fisheries Subsidies. This treaty has been adopted by so many other countries; about 65 countries. Even if we do not ratify it as a country, it will be operational. The treaty will benefit us as a country and, therefore, there is need for us to adopt it so I thank Members who have contributed. Where they have raised concerns like the Deputy Leader of the Majority Party… I want to thank the Deputy Leader of the Majority Party, Hon. Owen Baya. He contributed immensely on the fisheries’ regulations. The regulations cure what the Malindi Court pointed out when it nullified the Fisheries Amendment Act, 2016. I want to assure Members who have raised concerns, and the fishermen in western and coastal parts of Kenya, that the new fisheries Bill which is before this house – it come for the First Reading – is going to cure all the concerns. I do not want to say much. I beg to reply. Thank you."
