    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. My Question goes to the Cabinet Secretary for Environment and Forestry – (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary explain the current Government’s position regarding the moratorium on logging activities in forests imposed in 2018 and its adverse effects on the harvesting and disposal of mature trees in Kipkelion East Constituency? (ii) Could the Cabinet Secretary indicate whether the Government, through the Ministry, could consider cushioning families that rely entirely on logging activities in Kipkelion East Constituency for their economic livelihood? (iii) Could the Cabinet Secretary also indicate whether the Government through the Ministry could consider allowing a regulated Shamba System in the area to promote and enhance food security? (iv) Could the Cabinet Secretary indicate whether there are plans to lift the moratorium on prohibition of logging activities across the country? This is to be answered before the Departmental Committee on Environment, Forestry and Mining."
