    "content": "of all major milk processors, New KCC included. The average daily intake for the months of October, November, and December to January this year by the three main processors, who handle over 90 percent of all processed milk in Kenya, rose from 840,000 litres in October to about 1.4 million litres per day. From this table, it is evident that the problem is bigger than the New KCC. It is an industry problem. It is not possible for me to say how much losses dairy farmers incurred due to the unforeseen failure by processors to take all the milk produced during this glut. (b) My Ministry, together with the Ministry of Livestock Development and that of Finance, are putting in place measures that will not only enable processors to purchase all the milk produced locally but also encourage a vibrant dairy industry in which co-operatives will play a crucial role in poverty eradication within the next few years. (c) While the hon. Member is encouraged to re-direct the Question to the Minister for Livestock, I wish to point out that only a minimal amount of dairy products are imported into the country to serve some highly specialised needs whose processing capacity is not available locally. Any other product found within the country may have found its way here illegally. Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir."
