• 7 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am aware that the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs is in the House, but I want to confirm to this House that this is a matter that has engaged our minds.

• 6 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the element of transport cost from Mombasa to the factory, storage costs and so on are responsible for the price variation. This is why it varies from one place to another. view
• 6 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you look at the price variations between the factories you will see that the highest is Kshs1,904 and the lowest is Kshs1,884.
