    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, that money was as a result of coffee Sales Nos.30 and 34 of the year 2001/2002 crop. Before the change in the coffee registration, the Board had taken an overdraft from those banks against coffee stocks for onward lending to coffee growers. However, with the repeal of the Coffee Act, Cap. 333, and the subsequent enactment of the Coffee Act No.9 of 2001, the banks withdrew the overdrafts thereby trapping the coffee sales proceeds to growers. That is really a very serious matter. But as I said, my Ministry and the Treasury are holding discussions with a view to paying those arrears to farmers. Those discussions are at a very advanced stage. So, the farmers will inevitably be paid their money."
