"content": "Committee went to great length to inquire into allegations of alleged importation of illegal sugar and contaminated sugar into the country and reported back to the House. That is the reason I have this Report. The Committee held 26 sittings under very strict timelines. Hon. Speaker, as you will recall, we called on your indulgence three times seeking extensions so that we could get substantial reports from relevant government agencies. Unfortunately, in some cases, we were not able to get the correct information because some agencies refused to come to us. Hon. Speaker, in your ruling on the conduct of Members in committee proceedings, you made clear the role of other agencies such as Directorate of Criminal Investigation, Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission and others tasked with the solemn duty of carrying our investigations. The Committee of the House relies on information provided by relevant government agencies, witnesses and members of the public. We also invited members of the public who participated in the deliberations we had."
