"content": "emphasis to one with a degree. I think that would be of great help. We also said that the Council of Governors should be represented. That was proper. In the area of betting I think this has brought a lot of problems especially in my constituency. The increment of taxation from 35 to over 50 per cent will be a deterrent from this game. I know we get money from it but what is needed for intervention for those who have been addicted is much more. On energy, I do support collaboration. Many times if it is a national programme and the county government and other players on the ground are not included, the programme is just installed and left. If we have this collaboration and cooperation, we will have the installations accessed but also sustainability maintained. On TVET, it is correct for the Principal Secretary, National Treasury to be a member. Lastly, the debate that has been here for a long time was devoid of some facts. Broadening the definition of “milk” to include goat milk is not only good but it should be advocated and marketed by the Ministry of Trade and Industry, Agriculture and Irrigation as well as Livestock and Fisheries. Goat milk has the property of immunity which is so strong. It also prevents inflammation and is good for digestion. It is less allergenic meaning that most of us who react to bovine milk and some can be very fatal can consume it. Someone talked of special potassium which is essential for the prevention of blood clot. For the camel milk this is a fact. It is not debatable that there is an element in the camel milk that prevents all autoimmune diseases. Camel milk has anti-aging elements. That is why the Leader of the Majority Party is very young. Those who claim to be scientists should have gotten that. Lastly on weight loss, we talk of HIV and AIDS. The most important milk is goat milk for immunity and prevention of weight loss. I support this and challenge the Ministry responsible to market it so that it can hit the markets without leaving it to the Leader of the Majority Party as an individual to do that. I think it is good for all Kenyans. On National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF), initially we used to call it National Hospital Fund for insuring those who need biomedical intervention. We are now marketing health insurance so that we can improve public health. The change of that term is just correct. Thank you, Hon. Speaker, I support."
