"content": "It is only women who have multi-tasking capacity, so I want him to listen. One of the issues I raised is that consumers are missing in this equation and they need to be included because they have an interest in the production of that and how it ends up in our cups or abroad when we export it. The other thing, Madam Temporary Speaker, is KTDA and the body proposed in this Bill; it is not clear where one begins and the other ends, and this needs to be considered. In terms of Clause 4, it is proposing that the headquarters of this Authority should be in Kericho County. So, if all authorities in respective counties would go to where the production takes place, that is a good idea because you either take it where it is produced or where it is marketed more. So, whichever costs you more, you make it closer. If that is the case, then the Kenya Meat Commission (KMC) should move to Wajir County, because that is one of the greatest counties that produce meat products. Madam Temporary Speaker, the other thing that I want to comment about this Bill is on the constitution of the board. It is proposed that seven persons should be nominated by governors from counties that produces the highest amounts of tea. This needs to be specified. The Kenya Breweries Limited has been cited. If that is the case, then the same data should also be used to analyze which county in Kenya has the highest consumption of tea. Therefore, one of the board members should be from that county."
