On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Minister sure that he has read the Report? Some of the things he is talking about are clearly articulated in the Report. I respect him like my grandfather, but when it comes to reading the Report and understanding it, he should be able to peruse through it and see a letter that is annexed to it, and which is attributed to the PS, Ministry of Agriculture.

Three days later, I was called by Prof. Olweny who is now seated at that corner. He told me that people even get killed when they ask questions related to the sugar industry. He seems to have embraced the culture of threatening people. So, he should be the last person to complain.
