"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights proposes that this Section be deleted so that matters to do with punishment are retained by Parliament, and not via regulation. For example, discretionary powers on matters of fines should not be left to a CS. I fairly disagree with the Committee because the CS cannot make the regulation on his or her own. It will come to Parliament for approval; so we can still discuss that. I would have appreciated if the Committee did not remove that important punishment, because mishandling of milk is dangerous for this country. There have been cases where people have added other substances to milk. For example, they put a lot of water and some colouring matter, and then they sell to Kenyans substandard milk. This should attract serious and severe punishment, because it is like selling untreated water. Some people collect water from the river which exposes citizens of this Republic to all kinds of diseases."
