    "content": "Development Agreement with the community yet in the first table, it does not even show that company as one of the large-scale companies in Taita Taveta or the Coast region. Secondly, I asked about how much had accrued in the Central Bank of Kenya accounts as royalties. The community back home has been told to expect about Kshs6 billion to come back to the community. Through this Statement, I wanted to put that to rest so that it can be known exactly how much the community would get after the regulations come through this House. Now they say that because there are no regulations, they cannot speak about that. This is despite the fact that in the last financial year, Kshs1.6 billion was collected as royalties. We wanted to know the share for the people of Kishushe, Kwale and others, out of that amount in the 2019/2020 Financial Year. Now, the Statement does not mention any amounts. It states that because there are no regulations, it seems like we have nothing. Finally, I suspect that the National Treasury and the Department of Mining are hiding something. Why are the regulations taking too long? The Act was passed in 2016."
