    "content": "apart of trustland although it must be for public purposes. However there is no mechanism that ensures that, that process would protect community interest. Under that Chapter in the Constitution, there are no sufficient mechanisms to make sure that trustland are not used by local authorities under which they are vested, for objectives which clearly are against the interest of the communities. So, I invite you to look at the provisions in relation to trust land which are found in Chapter 9 of the Constitution. It is through Section 115, that trust land is vested in the county council. As I sit in the office at the Ministry together with the officials in the Ministry of Lands, one of the areas where we have a lot of problems is the use of trust land by local authorities for purposes which clearly are not for the benefit of the local communities. But because land is vested under local authorities, many times, we do not have any powers or mechanisms for intervention, for purposes of protecting the rights of local communities."
