Silas Tiren","speaker":{"id":2364,"legal_name":"Silas Kipkoech Tiren","slug":"silas-kipkoech-tiren"},"content":" Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the amendment of this Clause is very clear. It is indicated on the marginal note that it seeks to protect the rights of growers in a privatised company. On the issue of 51 per cent public shareholding, this relates to state-owned sugar mills that will be turning private; it is not on a wholly privately-owned sugar mill. You cannot put a 51 per cent public shareholding on a sugar mill that is 100 per cent owned by an individual. It is on state-owned sugar mill that is being privatised. I rest my case there. Thank you."}
