However, I was listening keenly to your Communication and specifically, on the matter of the company which was never recalled and that has petitioned Parliament for a review on its matter of sugar importation. I was sitting in the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock in the last Parliament. I remember vividly the question of sugar importation. It was a weighty matter. I am also aware that a similar petition concerning a company called Kenafric has been dealt with through the Committee on Implementation and a decision arrived at. I am rising to seek a further clarification from you, bearing in mind the mandate of the Committee on Implementation. I am not questioning your ruling, but would it be in order, even though precedence has been set already, for us to give the Committee on Implementation whose leadership I have got the utmost respect for, the mandate to review the decisions of other committees?"}
