Members, including the Ministers in the Government, for their support to the Animal Technicians Bill. This Bill will go a long way in not only improving the livestock sub- sector in our country but also in providing employment. The biggest beneficiary in this country will be the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) where Mr. Muthama `also comes from because they will now have proper legal documentation. We will do away with quacks because we have a legal framework that will shape the livestock sub-sector through the Animal Technicians Bill."}
