"content": "Hon. Speaker, Sir, remember in the agricultural sector you have the coffee industry which has the Coffee Board of Kenya. The tea industry has the same. The sugar industry has the Sugar Board of Kenya. The milk industry has a board but the fishing industry despite the heavy contribution in terms of foreign exchange and in terms of employment both directly and indirectly does not even have a board. However, more importantly as we subsidise the fertilisers for those who are growing maize there is also need to subsidise those who are harvesting the naturally grown fish from Lake Victoria, the Indian Ocean and even the artificially grown fish in our ponds. If people cannot access the fishing equipment, we need to facilitate them through a deliberate and concerted effort by the Government to be able to benefit from this important industry."
