    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I have listened to the questions and I wanted to make a mention. Whether we are talking about demolitions or forcible evictions, we are talking about some claim or rival claims to land or ownership of property. The police or the agencies within the administration or security only assessed the process. I was therefore thinking that in as much as the question is addressed to the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security, the final resolution to the matters as asked by Hon. Abdullswamad would better come from the Departmental Committee on Lands, because that is where the rival claims to ownership before the police interventions should be addressed. Otherwise, I do not think we will be dealing with the real issue. As he rightly says, there was a similar question raised about the demolitions along Kibos Railway line in Kisumu. There was a bit of debate in the morning as to whether that matter should be before the Departmental Committee on Lands which can determine who owns which portion and who therefore should be on what portion before eviction or demolitions take place. Remember the direction given by the Speaker in the morning is that that should go to the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing because it was the Railways Corporation which is dealing with the matter."
