Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Lands and Natural Resources has taken over my Question. However, I wish to confirm that the Assistant Minister came to me and we ironed out the issues that I had. But for the sake of the potato growing areas in this country, potatoes are widely used in urban areas. Chips are eaten everywhere in this town and the Government is not taking potato production seriously. Could he tell us what steps the Ministry is taking to improve the production of this crop?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister comes from a millet growing area. I want to bring to his attention the fact that when the production of potatoes is high, the prices go down. If we have storage facilities, the prices can be controlled. The prices go down from Kshs3,000 to Kshs100. The Ministry should establish storage facilities in areas where potatoes are grown.
