"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the Assistant Minister for the answer he has given. However, I would like to point out that it is not an honest answer, because we know that the price of imported sugar is even lower than the price of locally produced sugar. The cost of producing sugar locally is very high, because of the inefficiencies I am talking about. Transport costs are very high. Fertilizers are very expensive. The costs of ploughing, harrowing, et cetera, are very high. Therefore, his answer is misleading. Could he assure this House that strict measures will be put in place to control the charges levied on farmers for delivery of their sugarcane to the millers? These charges are so high that the farmer ends up getting very little profit or none at all."
