    "content": "The principal objective of the Livestock and Livestock Products Marketing Board Bill is to streamline marketing of livestock and livestock products in this country. This is in line with the fact that although the livestock industry is a very important source of income for many households in Kenya, its regulation is carried out by different entities. These many entities have caused duplication of work and competition. It is a waste of resources to have many entities because this leads to conflict of interest, competition and duplication of work. Hon. Bashir brought this Bill with the intention of streamlining the livestock industry because of duplication and competition which has resulted to poor service delivery. This has made the middlemen of this industry to be the main beneficiaries instead of the livestock farmers. Farmers have lost in a big way because they do not have a promotional body to advise, coordinate, strategise and put systems in places to enable them know of the market demand."
