"content": " Hon. Members, that means that the Motion as amended--- We have to go back to the 11th line and remove what has been removed. Now, the new Motion that you are going to debate is going to read like this:- \" THAT, in view of the Government's prime role and policy to spur the economy to an accelerated growth to catch up with the Asian economic tigers; conscious that agriculture is the engine of the country's economic development; noting with appreciation that the tea sub-sector has sustained itself as well as the economy through a very long recessionary period without any direct Government investment; cognisant that small tea production has by far surpassed the existing factories' processing capacity with resultant enormous loss and wastage of green leaf; bearing in mind that the cost of factory construction is sky high and beyond the ability of the small-scale farmers; and commending the Government's demonstrated commitment to revamp, boost, rehabilitate, revive and/or expand various important sectors of the economy, this House resolves to urge the Minister to rescind the Kenya Tea Development Authority Revocation Order of 1999 contained in Legal Notice No. 44 of 22nd March, 1999, establishing the Kenya Tea Development Agency Limited.\" That is the end. Everything, thereafter, is deleted. All right! Mr. Assistant Minister, you were already replying anyway."
