    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in conclusion, I want to say that this Blue Print is not legislation. The hard part for this Parliament will now be to look at the consequential legislation. There are areas that will not necessarily require parliamentary intervention for us to begin drafting the desired legislation. We can still bring that legislation in the House. But in terms of this policy as a whole, the hard part for this National Assembly will be to look at the implementing legislation where some of the fears that are being expressed by Members of Parliament would be addressed in the various statutes that we consider to be necessary for the implementation of this NLP. It is important that we have this NLP because we do not want to be left behind. Tanzania has already moved further. They have basically two land statutes that make land management and land ownership simpler and easy to administer. In Uganda, there was controversy, but they have also gone in the same direction. Even a country like Ethiopia has done so. A lot of investors are moving from Kenya to look for greener pastures in Ethiopia. So, it would be important in this time and age that we pass this NLP and now begin the exercise of coming up with implementing legislation."
