Watoto wetu wanaumia shuleni kwa sababu ya utenda kazi duni wa TSC. Ni lazima tubuni tume ya TSC itakayozingatia maslahi ya walimu. Tukizingatia masuala yaliyozungumziwa hapo awali, watu wengi wameuliza iwapo sheria ilifuatwa. Ningependa kusema kwamba wanakamati hao walifuata sheria na kufanya kazi ya maana. Kwa mara ya kwanza katika historia ya Bunge, wameonyesha kwamba Bunge si muhuri wa kupitisha matakwa ya kibinafsi ya watu fulani. Wabunge si ng’ombe wa kupelekwa mtoni na kurudishwa bomani. Sisi ni watu ambao hutekeleza wajibu wetu kwa mujibu wa sheria. Ningependa kusema kwamba mwenyekiti na wanakamati wake walifanya kazi nzuri sana. Hii siyo siasa ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to second the Motion but, before I do so, let me say that I have not gotten an opportunity, for the last two days, to condole with the families of Kenyans who perished in the Westgate Shopping Mall attack. I would like to send my condolences to the families who lost their loved ones as well as those families who are still in agony because they do not know the fate of their loved ones to-date.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I second the Motion because I also come from an area where we used to produce milk not only for consumption, but also for catering for the needs of our families. Kenya used to produce a lot of milk. We used to get a lot of money through the sale of milk when the defunct Kenya Co-operative Creameries (KCC) was very vibrant because the level of milk production was very high. However, with time, the dairy sector was messed up. The KCC kept changing names to New KCC and many other names. The price of milk ...

Farmers who used to have many cows, as a source of income, shifted to other agricultural areas like maize farming, tea growing, et cetera . That is because since the prices of milk went down, they have never risen like the prices of other farm produce. As my colleague has said, it is incumbent upon the Government to look into ways of stabilizing the prices of milk, so that we can encourage farmers to go back to milk production, so that they can get enough money that will enable them to meet their daily needs. Therefore, I would like to ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I recently had an opportunity to visit Holland. I realised that although that country is miles away from us, in terms of development, they still do dairy farming, just like Kenya used to do. I also realised that they produce the best breeds of cows. One cow can produce more than 40 litres of milk per day. They are able to keep such good breeds of cattle and have many farmers still sticking to dairy farming because the price of milk in that country is very high. The Government and other agencies buy milk from farmers ...

Our Government has not looked into the needs of dairy farmers. The best way through which the Government can do this is setting a minimum price at which milk can be bought. The defunct KCC, which used to be the best buyer of our milk, went down with time. If the Government could make KCC work better, it could be able to compete with other players in the dairy sector such as Brookside Dairy Limited. That way, the prices of milk can go high. As it is now, KCC cannot compete with other players in the dairy sector. Therefore, I ...

Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. I also wish to air my sentiments on this particular Motion. Like what the hon. Member has just said, we all need to support this Procedural Motion so that we deal with this issue comprehensively, and so that it can allow us time to have a serious look into the details of this Motion. I would like to say that I support this Procedural Motion and the whole House should support it because this is not something that belongs to one side of the political divide. It belongs to
