    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am not aware that there are thousands of IDPs who have been camping in Kyeni Forest, Gatundu North Constituency, for 17 years following the 1992 post-election violence. (b) My Ministry has not taken any measures towards resettling the said IDPs. The mandate of the Ministry in resettling the IDPs is limited to those affected in the 2007 post-election violence as per Legal Notice No.11 of 30th January, 2008. (c) My Ministry does not have records of the IDPs affected by the 2007 post- election violence from Gatundu North Constituency. All registers of the IDPs were closed on 31st December, 2008. However, according to the list of 1,195 households laid in Parliament by the hon. Member, 149 families are confirmed to be IDPs and 13 families are confirmed to have been paid Kshs10,000 while another 23 families have been confirmed to have been paid and yet they are not registered as IDPs. The balance of 1,046 households in the list are squatters emanating from the 1992 post-election violence as confirmed by the District Commissioner."
