    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important Report that has been tabled before this House. I just want to make two points clearly. I will even read from the Committee Report whether its findings answer the questions that they have stated here. Question number one is: To establish whether the sugar imported during the 2017 duty free window was fit for human consumption. On that issue, in my own statement, I was not even specific on when. My question was based on what the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government, Dr. Matiang’i, in full glare of the public said, that there was mercury in our sugar. That was my most important concern; whether the sugar that we are taking is fit for human consumption. It goes further to say: To establish measures in place to ensure that the sugar in the market is safe for human consumption; to inquire whether there is contraband sugar in the market and the measures taken regarding the same; to establish if the required procedures were followed in the importation of sugar under the 2017 duty free window - something I did not ask - and, to establish the disposal mechanism for the unfit or contraband sugar."
