Madam Temporary Speaker, I keep forgetting, but I will I will get it right along the way. Thank you for reminding me. If I make the same mistake, remind me once more until I get it right. This Bill addresses an important need in our society; the need to ensure that whatever Kenyans are eating is actually certified and passes the test of what good food should encompass.

This then brings challenges because all their inefficiencies and incompetences are shared across all these other institutions as opposed to you having maybe the people in charge of the drugs, if there are institutional weaknesses or incompetence in the person of leading that institution, at least it does not affect the food. However, I still contend and hold the view that the benefits of having all of them housed under one roof far outweighs what would be the advantages of having them separated. I will be pursuing these thoughts later with the responsible and competent authorities, so that we can ...

that this House approves are those that are provided in the Constitution that need to be approved by Parliament.

The said lady or gentleman will be presented to both Houses, who will look into their competencies, hold them accountable and either approve or deny them approval based on the competence that they present before our ...

where you find public officers who earn from taxpayer's money earn double the salary of the President of this Country. You wonder what it is that they are doing.
