• 6 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: I beg to move: THAT, clause 29 of the Bill be amended in sub-clause (3)— (a) in paragraph (c) by inserting the words “in consultation with stakeholders,” immediately after the words “agricultural produce”; (b) in paragraph (e) by deleting the word “impose” appearing after the words “to the Board to” and substituting therefor the word “enforce”; and, (c) in paragraph (f) by deleting the word “imposition” appearing at the beginning of the paragraph and substituting therefor the word “enforcement”.

• 6 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: I need to check on this. I think there is a mix-up here. It is like the justification was left out. view

• 6 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 30 of the Bill be amended— (a) by deleting the marginal note and substituting therefore with the following— “Rights of growers in a privatised company” (b) in paragraph (b) by deleting the word “milling” appearing after the words “directors of” and substituting therefor the words “privatised company.” This is to ensure that the rights of the growers are safeguarded where a public milling company is privatised. Thank you. view
• 6 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the amendment of this Clause is very clear. It is indicated on the marginal note that it seeks to protect the rights of growers in a privatised company. On the issue of 51 per cent public shareholding, this relates to state-owned sugar mills that will be turning private; it is not on a wholly privately-owned sugar mill. You cannot put a 51 per cent public shareholding on a sugar mill that is 100 per cent owned by an individual. It is on state-owned sugar mill that is being privatised. I rest my case there. Thank you. view
• 6 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Chairlady. I beg to move: THAT, the Bill be amended by deleting Clause 31. The import is that it has been taken care of by the New Clause IV Part A. I thank you. view
• 6 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: It has been taken care of by the New Part IV A. Sorry, it is a mistake. view
• 6 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: I want to refer you to the Order Paper; it talks about the establishment of a Sugar Tribunal on page 1228. I think that is what I was looking for. Are we together? view
