It became necessary for me to take remedial measures to ensure that the ship does not capsize with all the employees, assets and the pyrethrum sub-sector in totality. I, therefore, appointed a task force chaired by Mr. Okodhe who came up with the recommendations that I have read out this afternoon. We looked at it as a Ministry and thought it was reasonable because it was an in-depth analysis, complete with a revival plan of pyrethrum sub-sector in our country. It is on the basis of this task force report that we took the actions."}
