    "content": "subsequent job losses and loss of income for those small-scale sorghum farmers. (vi) THAT, the Government did not consider the impact of the Legal Notice 103(2) of 18th June 2013 in regard to the welfare of its citizens and, in particular, those sorghum farmers. (vii) THAT, we confirm that the issues in respect of which the Petition is made are not pending before any court of law. Therefore, your humble Petitioners pray that the National Assembly, through the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade, obtains without delay an undertaking from the Cabinet Secretary in charge of the National Treasury that:- (i) The National Treasury de-gazettes Legal Notice 103(2) of 18th June 2013; (ii) The National Treasury reviews and reverses the Excise duty grant to one hundred per cent remission on beer produced from sorghum or millet; (iii) The Government invests more in drought-resistant crops; and, (iv) The Government supports alternative uses of sorghum, including production of bio-fuel. And your Petitioners will ever pray. Thank you, hon. Speaker."
