    "content": "(a) The Government is aware and appreciates the serious problem of squatters currently occupying private, co-operatives and public institutions’ land in Trans-Nzoia District. We are also aware that some private and public institutions’ land was invaded during the 1992 tribal clashes. It is estimated that there are over 15,000 squatters in Trans-Nzoia District who have not been settled to date. The Government has in the past settled 12,179 beneficiaries in 43 settlement schemes in Trans-Nzoia District. There are also plans to settle 1,000 landless Kenyans in Chepchoina Phase II. Unfortunately, during this Financial Year, 2009/2010, my Ministry was not allocated any funds for the purchase of farms to settle the landless poor Kenyans including squatters. If I may add, the same applies to the next financial year and this is unfortunate."
