I remember my grandfather’s identifier was No.123. So, everybody in the family would brand their animals 123, but they would know that they have a specific identifier for their specific animals within the larger family identification. On the same Part II on branding, I see the Senator is proposing that in Clause six, every livestock owner shall apply to the County Executive Committee Member (CECM) for registration in their name of a brand of such nature and dimension as shall be prescribed in county legislation.

I have never understood why we should tag an obvious open crime and baptize it cattle rustling. A thief is a thief whether they are stealing mangoes from plantations in Kitui or stealing livestock from the Rift. I thank Sen.

That is the way to go. It must ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity to welcome the visiting delegation. I wish them well in their engagement with the Senators and staff of the Senate. I congratulate them for choosing to come to the Senate, which is the ‘Upper’ House of the Parliament of the Republic of Kenya, where debate is not hindered by any interest other than the service to the great people of this country.
