Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill and I also want to thank my friend, hon. Ng’ongo, for coming up with these amendments. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I believe the intentions of these amendments are to help the very ordinary Kenyans. However, I know that at the moment in this country, we are talking about the wage bill and other things. When I look at these amendments; the livestock industry has not actually been taken care of. When you look at Clause 45, where he is talking about insecticides, fungicides, herbicides and so forth, I would request hon. Ng’ongo, though I will still come with my amendments, livestock keepers are suffering a lot when it comes to acaricides, antibiotics, antiemetics and so forth. I will support these amendments, but we need an amendment for the sake of the big livestock industry in this country. Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."}
