    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that quite a number of cattle dips in the country collapsed after they were handed over to the communities way back in 1991. I am very happy that the hon. Member has stressed that they collapsed \"During years of stagnation in the dairy industry\". He knows who was in the Government then. (b) The Ministry is undertaking a countrywide survey to compile comprehensive data to identify key factors which led to the collapse of cattle dips and target areas in dire need of cattle dip services. This will allow the Ministry to review the current policy on privatization of dips in order to revitalize the industry. May I also urge hon. Members to support the revival of cattle dips through the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) and the LATF. Meanwhile, I thank hon. Members because I am aware that many cattle dips have been rehabilitated using the CDF money. My Ministry will continually support our farmers by training them on the importance of dipping their animals using effective acaricides."
