I rise pursuant to Standing Order No. 53(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries regarding the status of purchase of wheat from Kenyan farmers. In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Provide a list of all licensed wheat millers in the country. (2) Table the memorandum of understanding between the cereal growers association and the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock Development regarding the purchase of local wheat by millers and the price per bag for the year 2024. (3) Table a report of quantities of wheat purchased from the local farmers as well as quantities imported by each miller explaining why the millers did not fully absorb locally produced wheat before purchasing the quotas allocated for duty free import. (4) State whether the wheat imported above the quotas attracted duty and if not, state how much in cash equivalent the Government forfeited on duty in the year 2024."
