"content": "Mr. Chairman, Sir, I do not support that. I would like to support the amendment. I believe that punishment should not be made draconian. Punishment should provide an opportunity for rehabilitation. If the figure Kshsh1 million is put there, then the court may have to apply it, and we may end up putting people in jail who may not pay that kind of fine. So, I want to support this amendment. The main reason is that the people who will be selling are agents. They are basically local people; they are not the manufacturers. So, it is the locals who sell to children. I am yet to find a situation where a manufacturer sells directly or retails. If we put it at Kshs1 million, we will be saying that retailers may have to be jailed for five years or fined Kshs1 million."
