    "content": "(Dr.) Mbito on the issue of public land. There was a time the Teachers’ Service Commission (TSC) and the Ministry of Education was supposed to issue title deeds to public primary and secondary schools across the country. I request that, that scope should be increased, so that when the response to the Petition comes back to the House, the Government should tell us whether those title deeds have been issued and how many schools are yet to receive them across the country. Land issues are so emotive. The biggest challenge is the grabbing of public land, especially in major cities such as Nairobi, Mombasa, Eldoret and Kisumu and even in small trading centres. Most parcels of land were grabbed, especially during the defunct local authorities. I am happy that I have seen the Chair of the Committee on Lands, Environment and Natural resources, Sen. Mwangi. As they look at these allegations of grabbing of public primary school land in Kitale, they should be able to tell us the state of public land across the country. When one walks across our estates, they rarely find a public space where our children can play and people can relax. When you drive around in Nairobi, because of the grabbing of public land, people are forced out of their estates to go and relax in The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
