• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me thank my colleague, hon. Wamalwa, for giving me these two minutes. I also congratulate him for bringing this Bill. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: I stand to support this Bill and emphasise that it will check those unscrupulous traders and business people who tend to go and import sub-standard materials and fertilisers. They bring them to this country and, at the end of the day, fertilizers not really benefitting the farmers. They benefit those people who import the same. At the same time, those fertilizers, at the end of the day, end up even destroying our soils and, therefore, reducing the food production in our farms. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, being an agricultural country, I strongly believe in the direction that this Bill is taking us. We shall be able to produce more for our country. We will also create jobs by having industries which will use raw materials and, at the same time, we will get time to evaluate and also do proper analysis of fertilizers which are conducive or good for different soils in different localities of our country. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: What happens is that the fertilizers that farmers know are DAP and these others. At the end of the day, when they come here, they are sold across the country without testing the soils to know exactly which soils fit with what kind of fertilizer. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I beg to support. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support this Bill. I thank hon. Wamunyinyi for bringing this Bill. I appreciate his determination to follow up this Bill, having brought it, as I have heard, in the Ninth Parliament. Personally, I feel that it is the right time to have this Bill passed in this august House for the protection of those people who do a noble job as psychotherapists, psychologists and counselors. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: These are our unsung heroes who do a lot for our society, especially when it comes to those people who have mental disorders, which are sometimes induced. Other mental disorders come as a result of ailment and congenital causes. Most of the time, we do not get the right people to get these people treated. Counselors and psychologists go an extra mile to even stay with patients in their houses, homes or rehabilitation centres.

• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: To try and treat somebody’s mind really takes time. Sometimes the benefits these medical officers get are limited; because there is no law in place, there are others who will come up and say that they are psychologists or counselors only to make money and exploit people who are in need of treatment. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: I strongly believe that this is a double-edged Bill, which will protect patients and medics. It will also caution medics who pretend to be professionals in that area. I really support establishing institutions where we can get proper training, so that we do not get quacks doing this job and exploiting people who are in need of their services. view
• 30 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: If somebody has a mental illness and he requires a counselor, even their family will go out of its way to pay any amount of money to bring that person back to normality. Some will even consult witchdoctors so that they can rehabilitate their loved ones. Once somebody wants to exploit that situation, he will pretend to be a counselor at the end of the day. That person will take money or resources from the victim while the victim’s condition continues to deteriorate. So, proper training and qualified people are necessary. We should have institutions established and commissioned by the ... view
