"content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker. The Chairman of the Departmental Committee Agriculture, Livestock and Co-operative has been taking things in a very simplistic manner. I did even work on an amendment to the Tea Act and he has sat on it. It has never been moved in his Committee and he is saying that the Tea Act does not exist. We have sat down with the lawyers of Parliament and that Act still exists. Why is the levy still there? He should not continue treating it as a simple when it is not that simple. This is an illegal levy on the farmers; from the time ALFA Act came into place in January 2014 it became illegal. They have continued collecting this levy illegally from the Farmers; this illegality must come to an end immediately. I want the Chair to be more serious with these issues."
