"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I can confirm that Kshs72 million was paid to small farmers in 2006. Another mandate of the Ministry which could be mistaken is that we do an oversight role. Cooperative societies elect their own managers. Indeed, they recruit their own members of staff. That is where mismanagement comes in. when you look at this cooperative society, it went down because they employed incompetent unqualified staff who could not tell them what was happening. They gave out loans to members who did not have savings. They suffered a lot of problems. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the union had a non-performing loan of Kshs101, 856,481.85 as at 28th January 2009 with 7,707 farmers. There is also Kshs1, 994,000 which was given out as petty cash to members of staff. There is Kshs1.5 million which is overpaid salary as a result of mismanagement by the people who were running the cooperative. However, as to when they changed from banking to coffee growing the Questioner should ask that specific Question so that I can come with those details. I do not have the correct dates."
