Kassim Tandaza","speaker":null,"content":" Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Let me start by thanking all the Members who contributed last week in support of this Bill. As I had initially indicated, this is a cash crop that is currently grown in the coastal region that has all the potential of uplifting the economic standards of the coastal farmers. Its scheduling will bring a lot of benefits. We all agree that being a cash crop mainly for export, it has the potential of filling the foreign exchange deficit that this country badly needs. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I beg to reply. Thank you for giving me the opportunity, and to Members."}
