"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will take the blame on my part, but I did not do this privately in the Assistant Minister's office! We had a seminar attended by hon. Members including the relevant Departmental Committee Members. I did not have any private discussions with the Assistant Minister! So, being a new hon. Member at that time, I assumed that, that was the proper procedure. The Assistant Minister told us in a meeting, a seminar in Naivasha, and mine was not the only Bill, that, because of the weighty matters associated with the sugar industry, in fact, he was going to accelerate its drafting, as the Government. So, he has let me, and the sugar- cane farmers, down. Hon. Members can tap their feet as much as they want, but as far as I am concerned, it was in an open forum, where the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Lands and Natural Resources was in attendance. I believed we were following the proper procedure!"
