    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I beg to second the Motion. Indeed, the control of plastic waste has not been practical, because our people are not brought up to understand 472 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES April 16, 2008 the use of litter boxes. Our motorists have not been trained to use bags in their cars and, therefore, not to litter around when they are driving. In the developed countries, if a motorist throws waste out of the car through the window, there is always a heavy fine. I believe this rule can also be imported into Kenya. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, plastic waste kills our wildlife, domestic animals and fish in the lakes. Our children die from plastics as a result of suffocation. All this can be controlled. I say so because I know that there is technology in the Asian countries, where plastics are actually made out of bio-degradable products. I do not see why we cannot have this in this country. With those few remarks, I beg to second the Motion."
