Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I rise to support the amendment by the able Committee, but I would like to seek some clarification. When we take goods to the warehouse, some trading will take place inside there and exclusion of the Principal Secretary in charge of trade needs to be clarified. I also have a problem with “(l) one person nominated by the Kenya Warehouse Operators Association.” Is this in anticipation that there will be an association by that name and if so, do we pass a Bill without it being formed?

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I support the position of the Chair to exclude the involvement of CECs because it will delay things. I have a problem because we have some important functions that were mentioned in that clause especially in 5(f), (g) and (h). I am wondering how the Committee would like to have that handled. It is important that we promote the use of warehouses especially at the grassroots. People who do not understand what they are need a lot of civic education. I want clarification on how the Committee proposes to have the three functions in ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman for giving me a chance again. I just wanted a clarification maybe from the Leader of the Majority Party as to whether this is a money Bill or not.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I do support what is being proposed by the Chair, but I would want us to get a clearer picture. Grading is a very important function with a potential to bring a lot of conflicts and disputes. I wanted to know on what they may have benchmarked on. Are these graders part of the warehouses as employees or are they independent people out there? Do they operate like veterinary officers who visit various slaughter houses and inspect cows? How does it work? I really want to get a clearer picture on these graders.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. At such a time, many things happen and some of us who are new are learning a lot of things. Is it in order for Hon. Kajwang’ to be talking while seated and in a style likely to suggest that he is in his sofa set?

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this very important topical issue. The issue of importation in our country needs to be addressed in a serious manner. We are importing fish and leaving our fish farmers without support and markets. In addition, we are consuming goods which sometimes we do not know where they are coming from. As we congratulate the President on the ban of importation of fish, it is important that we get deeper into the issue and understand who in the first place authorised licences for importation of fish into this country. We need ...
