    "content": "per kilogramme. However, you will find that some factories in central Kenya area will declare bonus of about kshs50 per kilogram. Why are we having these disparities and yet these are all farmers in our country Kenya; the tea export is through the same Port of Mombasa and marketed by the same agent; the KTDA? These are issues that I hope this Committee will look into so that we can ensure that the price of tea per kilogramme to each farmer is something that is satisfactory and acts as an incentive to encourage our farmers to continue in the tea growing. Finally, Madam Temporary Speaker, ever since we had a ban on procurement of wood fuel, most factories are having challenges. They do not have enough wood fuel to run these factories. I hope that this Committee will interrogate the people who imposed this ban. We ought to provide answers on what the alternative source of power is if we ban wood fuel. Historically, they have always relied on wood fuel but, today, the Government has imposed a ban on logging. Madam Temporary Speaker, I support the Motion by my friend that we should add the Ad Hoc Committee 60 more days to enable them conclude their work. I thank you."
