On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to seek for a Ministerial Statement from the Minister for Agriculture. First, could he clarify whether the current sugar shortage is real or artificial? Secondly, why is he allowing the importation of non-COMESA sugar into the country, duty-free, which is against the law? Thirdly, what would be the fate of the farmers, workers and their families within the sugar-belt, who are likely to be hurt by that free-for-all importation?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance on the state of affairs at Post Bank Ltd.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has evaded one very important question here. The unihut that the OCS operates from also serves as a police cell. However, this police station was constructed in 1964 and since then, it has never been upgraded to a modern police station. Could he tell me when he is likely to do that.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the Minister. His plea for more money for his Ministry is very crucial. This is because we know what the Ministry of Tourism can bring to this country.

I believe that the Ministry has a long way to go because there are issues to do with conference tourism which has not been tapped in this country. We have lost many conferences which go to Uganda on almost every quarter of a year. Uganda has facilities that can host more than 4,000 people at a go. I have been to one of them. People are
