Pursuant to Standing Order No.42A (5), I rise to ask Question No.35/2019 to the Cabinet Secretary for Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary explain the circumstances under which Mumias Sugar Company was placed under receivership by the Kenya Commercial Bank; state the long-term plans the Government has regarding cane farming in western region; and, shed light on the fate of Mumias Sugar Company suppliers who are still owed millions of shillings? (ii) Within which timelines shall the Ministry in conjunction with the Kiunjuri/Oparanya- led Taskforce complete its report on the sugar industry and present it to H.E. the President for action? (iii) What is the fate of the Mumias Sugar nucleus land which was leased by the Government from local residents for 33 years in 1974, and will the land revert to the community under the new circumstances?"
