Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Government, especially the Ministry of Agriculture, has failed for a very long time to regulate the buying and selling of molasses. Molasses, as a by-product, is being used by quite a number of factories in this country actually to generate yeast, power alcohol and spirits. For this purpose, they cannot operate fully because a lot of molasses is being bought illegally from these sugar factories and exported illegally to a neighbouring country. What steps is the Assistant Minister taking to make sure that molasses is not bought haphazardly so that these local producers can be protected?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on that particular night, there were eight rangers who were charged with the responsibility of taking care of that camp. They were under the care of Corporal Adan Yaro. It is so surprising that after that incident, it is only seven, including Corporal Adan Yaro, who were dismissed. A Mr. Peter Gicheha,who was also among the group, was not dismissed. Could the Minister explain that discrepancy?
