Parliament defers debate on sugarcane weighbridge regulation, asks Minister Bahati for statement

According to ChimpReports, Parliament deferred debate on regulating sugarcane weighbridges to 15 April and directed State Minister for Industry David Bahati to return with a detailed ministerial statement. Bahati told the House that weighbridges are essential to the sugar value chain but acknowledged regulatory gaps. The debate follows closures of roadside weighbridges, particularly in Masindi District, which local leaders there have backed.
