    "content": "done on the ground. I would have expected that the Committee would even suggest that they will come down to see what is going on on the ground so that we are able to see and learn from the ground the damage that is being caused by elephants and other animals in my area. Regarding the water tanks that have been destroyed, I expected that the matter would be addressed immediately by having those tanks replaced by the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS). Finally, the last time I met the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Tourism he talked about needing Kshs3.5 billion to settle all the compensation claims in the country. Can the Committee ensure that they bring the budget to this House so that we give the Ministry the money to pay the people who have been affected by human-wildlife conflict? It is no longer tenable. All the people who have been affected grow food crops for subsistence but all of it is destroyed. Some claims date back to 2014 but to-date they have not been paid. I do not think it is fair. Something should be done urgently. As we prepare the Budgets for this country or for the Ministry of Tourism, it is important that we allocate enough money for people to be compensated not only in Voi or Taita/Taveta but in whole country. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
