    "content": "Kenya is a country with many laws. The problem is not making the laws, but implementing them. That is why we have sanctions whereby if you fail to implement a certain provision in the law, then they must apply. There should be some sort of Government incentive so that if an employer is implementing this law, then it can be reflected in the tax burden they carry. If you are to implement the Breastfeeding Mothers Act which I believe will become an Act soon, then the Government should be able to recognise this when it comes to payment of taxes by companies and the private sector. I do not think this will create a huge tax burden on the employer in ensuring that there is a comfortable working environment. I agree with what my sister has said in this Bill. It is important for us to breastfeed our children because it gives them higher immunity if they are breastfed for a longer period of time and not just six months. Even for one year. Therefore, this is a good Bill. It gives the children and mothers a longer life expectancy."
