    "content": "Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir. I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 4 of the Bill be amended- (a) in sub-clause(1) by deleting the words “National Potato Council” appearing immediately after the words “known as the” and substituting therefor the words “Potato Board of Kenya”; and (b) in sub-clause (2) by deleting the word “Council” appearing in the introductory clause and substituting therefor the word “Board”. Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, the proposed amendment to Clause 4 seeks to review the name of the potato Council to the Potato Board of Kenya, particularly in view of the fact that it is a corporate body whose functions are expected to cut across the national and county levels of government. The subsequent amendments, therefore, seek to replace the word “Council” with “Board”, in order to take into account the change in the name of the council. We also realised there is a private entity called “council” and we also wanted to avoid another “council”. Thank you."
