Hon. Deputy Speaker, in reply, I want to thank all the Members who have supported the Motion. When bottles are disposed anyhow, we give free advertisement, promotion and increase alcohol consumption. We also pollute our environment. If we control and regulate this alcohol consumption, we will save a lot on health cost, security and adhere to the law. We will also save on the legal cost that is incurred when families are fighting over issues of alcohol addiction. Collection and recycling will bring in industrialization, create employment and bring people to the money economy. We shall save a lot of ...

NACADA should request for enough allocation to educate our children on the dangers of alcohol. We should have Budget allocations to rehabilitate addicts. We should not only entertain our children when they are on holidays, but we should put them in sporting activities and show them films to discourage them from the use of alcohol. At the same time, NACADA should report performance to this House. We give them a lot of money and I do not find much that is done by them. NACADA should tell us what they have done with the money. They are not felt at ...

The legal brewers in this country should come up, in their corporate social responsibly, with programmes to get NACADA to bring sanity in the alcohol sector. They make super profits which should be used to reach out to the society. Schools should have ethics lessons in their curriculum to show them the dangers of alcohol and drug abuse.

We are endangered environmentally. These bottles are all over. I agree that we need to be a responsible country. If we borrow a leaf from Japan, we can save our resources and make our country productive. We must work together to save a generation. The current laws require to be checked. If we do not act now, our people will start diminishing and we will make Kenya a very expensive country to raise a generation.

Therefore, I thank this House and every Member who supported the Motion. I ask NACADA and all those who are involved to move away from research and go to implementation. They have done enough research and they should implement. This should start as soon as tomorrow.

They are not working, hon. Deputy Speaker. When I look at the subject matter of this Motion, and when I remember my faith, at one time Jesus was in a dilemma and he told those who wanted to stone Mary Magdalene that if any of them had never messed they should be the first throw a stone at her. They all disappeared and none of them cast a stone. This Motion is ill timed.

Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I, therefore, think that this House should spend its precious time trying to redeem where we have been placed by the views of people outside this House. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I rise to oppose this Motion. In the first place, the madness of a community can make a very sane man very insane. I do not know whether we have taken into account the inventory of our conduct. Sometimes we really put a lot of pressure on the Speaker and the circumstances under which he makes his statements are really not malicious. Look at what ...

The other thing I looked at is the conduct of our Speaker. When I came to this House I thought that because we voted for him in a big way he would be giving us all the chances to speak but hon. Justin B. Muturi is a man of equity. I look at the way he treats Members on both sides of the House and say that he is a man of justice and equity. When I looked at this Motion, I thought it was such an immaterial Motion that should have been brought to a Kamukunji, where we could ...
