"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I thank the Minister for bringing this Bill. I would like to indicate that I am not too sure as to whether I want to support or oppose this Bill because I would have wished to get some clarifications from the Minister in relation to this Bill. First, in relation to a recent Bill that the Minister brought that sought to do what she says this Bill seeks to do, which is to consolidate the whole lot within the agricultural sector--- I am wondering why we need another Crop Bill if what she was seeking to do is to consolidate. Why do we have this as a standalone? The Minister should also know that because we are really short of time and since she has several Bills - she is rushing through them - she should speak more exhaustively towards them and then we speak less on them. We want to spend less time with the experts as the Minister explains and the rest of us should understand what she is saying so that we do not raise too many queries. I would like the Minister to clarify why we do not have the definition of the word “crop”. We only have a schedule that defines what “schedule crops” are. I would like to know what the definition of “crop” is, especially in light of the Plant Varieties Act which the Minister brought here and we passed. How"
