    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the Motion on Land Policy. From the onset, I want to congratulate the Minister for his bold step and I believe this is characteristic of his signature bravery that we have known him for. I know the Minister is dealing with very vicious land dealers. To reform this is quite a daunting task. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is ridiculous that at this point in time, we are still arguing on the size of land we have as a country. We still do not know whether some parts of the country are really part of Kenya or not. I have in mind the Migingo Island issue. I think it is very important that at this point in time, we come out very clearly and know where our boundaries are. This includes our boundaries on water bodies. This would be a beginning point to land reform. We must know what we are talking about as a whole, before we go to subdivisions. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this move is timely as far as management of land in this country is concerned. In my constituency, Rangwe, we do not have a lot of land problem. However, with these reforms, I now look forward to the Minister to come over and his style of recognizing land ownership system that we have; customary land ownership system, issue the people or Rangwe with title deeds. I also want to add that land is a very important resource. In fact, land is the single most important production resource. In Kenya today we have not given our land sector the prominence and attention it deserves. Looking at our budget today, the Ministry of Lands has been allocated Kshs2 billion. The Ministry of Lands has a potential of turning around this countryâs economy if well managed. This is the more reason I want to congratulate the Minister for having stepped in with the much needed reform in this sector. If you compare the Ministryâs budget with that of the Ministry of Finance, 80 per cent of the Kshs2.3 billion allocated to the Ministry of Lands goes to salaries and recurrent expenditure. This leaves a mere Kshs400 million for development. This cannot take the land reform agenda anywhere. Before any reforms, we are reliably told that the Ministry of Lands generates a revenue of Kshs6 billion. If we invest in the reform of the Ministry of Lands to the tune of about Kshs1 million per year, in the next three years or four years, the Ministry is"
