    "content": "Look at the area of training. It is important that we get people at the technology and technician level so that we can handle this. As I end, we must support this Motion. The Government must put money in this. We must avoid the looming danger. People who have exploited the fish industry without even protecting the areas are now turning round to import fish from outside the country. I must say if you are selling fish at Kshs30 a piece, it is extremely doubtful the process through which that fish has been brought. Fish, as healthy as it is, if not properly processed, is also the most hazardous in terms of health. We know there is poisoning that comes from fish particularly heavy metals like mercury. We know that in the eastern part of the world, this has been a big problem. In Japan before, there was the Minamata disease where children were born deformed because fish had a lot of mercury in it. The Japanese got rid of that. They solved the problem. For this fish that is being imported at low cost, are they really looking at these issues and bringing us safe and healthy fish? We have to look at that."
