• 29 Sep 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I support the amendment for similar reasons that have been mentioned here. The original Bill does not talk about the divisions that have been mentioned here. I ask other Members to support this. Recently, I went for a trip to Mauritius that had been organised by the Indian Ocean Rim Association.

• 29 Sep 2015 in National Assembly: Again, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, this is a very important aspect. It is not just about omena in fresh waters. It is also about other fish in the oceans as well. For example, in areas at the Coast like Shimoni and Vanga, there are fishermen from Tanzania and Kenya who collide.

• 29 Sep 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, there are people who have private property along the beach and have been encroaching on the fish landing sites saying that those areas are part of their plots. If they are gazetted then at least we will know who they are. view
