Thank you, hon. Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to support this Procedural Motion. I support the extension. Hon. Speaker, agriculture is the mainstay of our economy in terms of feeding our people and the commodities that we export. After listening to the hon. Members who spoke earlier, especially those who happened to be around during the 10th Parliament, I am convinced that the Bill that resulted in this Act was passed haphazardly. In fact, the Leader of Majority Party, hon. Duale, put it clearly that it was passed during the wee hours of the night, when most of the ...

Hon. Speaker, I am sure that those are the words of our colleagues who sat in the 10th Parliament. They are not my words.

The Government should ensure that when these youngsters are released to the service industry, there is some focus on where they will go. If the industries that could absorb them are not enough, there should ...

For example, we have the Catering and Tourism Levy which is charged by every hotel in this country. This money is collected and those who do not remit it are prosecuted. We wonder where this money goes. If this money was utilized well, it could be used to train our young entrepreneurs especially in the hospitality industry.

has been unfairly judged and put in the category of stuff that is referred to as drugs. The people who have categorized it so have not taken time to evaluate or conduct research about it. In fact, most people do not know the background of miraa . Having been brought up in Meru, I can authoritatively attest to the fact that miraa is not a drug. Personally, I chew miraa . Every weekend, when I go to my constituency, I chew
