    "content": "their names, but they must know that their important stakeholders regarding what they do are the small-scale entrepreneurs. As they plan, they should be aware of what happens all over the world. There is something called Dubai 2020. I would like to see people sitting down and ensuring that the team that will go to Dubai will not just comprise of the “who is who” of this country, but will also include small-scale entrepreneurs. They should be given an opportunity to package their products so that they meet international standards when they go out there. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank Othaya Coffee Farmers. They have moved a step forward and they are able to market their coffee in Denmark and all over the world. I also want to thank the President for that task team that he put up to ensure that brokers are removed. We want the same to happen regarding sugar and tea industries, so that other farmers can benefit by selling their own products. We should train them on how to package products to meet international standards so that they can be exported anywhere in this world. Lastly, Britain exited from the European Union. Again, we shall have to go back to the drawing board to see how we shall discuss with them the issue of trade. We should not forget the small-scale entrepreneurs who sell vegetables and other products in Embu and other places because they will also be affected. Therefore, as we amend this law, we must be alive to the fact that we have very many other issues. Therefore, we require the best infrastructure to assist both men and women and ensure that they both benefit from the incentives given to the manufacturers of this country. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I support."
