    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I beg to move: That, this House adopts the Report of the Committee on Implementation on its consideration of the implementation status of the Report of the Departmental Committee on Lands regarding Land Issues in Taita Taveta County, laid on the Table of the House on Wednesday, September 29, 2021. The Committee on Implementation is the Committee tasked with the responsibility of following up on the implementation of decisions, laws, Petitions and any other resolutions of this House. It is by dint of that responsibility, as set out in Standing Order No. 209, that I stand to ask this House to support the Report. The Report that we are discussing or debating now is a Report emanating from the Departmental Committee on Lands regarding land issues in Taita Taveta County. the Departmental Committee on Lands of the 11th Parliament noted the public outcry in Taita Taveta County and the rising tension in the area due to the land conflict between the owner of the Teita Sisal Estate and the local community. The Committee therefore resolved to conduct an inquiry into this matter in 2015. Taita Taveta is one of those areas in which local communities have been marginalised and denied their birth right. When you talk about the historical land injustices, the best case study is the one of Taita Taveta. In fact, the residents of Taita Taveta are what we can call squatters in their ancestral land. We met many stakeholders. I think it is important to let the House know that we met the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning—we met the CS, the CAS, the PS and the The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
