"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the bigger problem for those factories is the capacity. The capacities for which they were designed have already been bypassed because, particularly during the rains, the harvest becomes bigger than the designed capacities. What we have continued to do over the years, from the current 57 factories, there are seven more under construction. Three have already been planned. However, the bigger issue is the question of the infrastructure. that the roads in those areas, particularly, during the rains are impassable. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, to address that, as a short-term measure, together with the KTDA, we have improved on the collection centres so that even if the leaves are not collected in a day, they are collected within the next 12 hours. This is not a sustainable measure because it interferes with the quality. Our long-term interest is to ensure that we look at the catchment areas and be able to devise some mechanisms through which you can sufficient factories to deal with the leaves."
