    "content": "consideration. These are public funds, which if utilised well, we can see fruits, benefits, and have value for the money. Hon. Speaker, when we went through the Budget Estimates for the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning, we noted that a big chunk of money was allocated to land titling. There was none that was kept aside for the settlement of the poor or landless. The Cabinet Secretary allocated Kshs49 million only to purchase land for the poor and over Kshs1.4 billion for titling. If you have not purchased land, what will you title? Through our able Chair, we negotiated and reallocated Kshs250 million from titling to the settlement of the poor. I wish to appreciate this House because we presented a Petition here. Thereafter, we went to the ground and collected the views of the poor. This Petition was about JundaWard in my constituency where we have land measuring about 122 acres that is owned by Taita Taveta Teachers Savings and Credit Co-operative Society (SACCO). This House passed that Report which stated that the Government of Kenya should allocate funds to purchase this land and settle the poor."
