    "content": " I was asking that because one thing I love in this Bill is its definition of rate-able owner. It says that for you to be a rate-able owner, you must be a registered owner of the property. I remember when the Cabinet Secretary for Lands was here, very many Members were asking when their areas would be titled? The Bill appears to indicate that those areas which have not been titled would not be paying rates, and I think that is how it should be. Maybe the Departmental Committee on Lands should move as fast as possible in my view and ensure that those areas like Nyanza which have not been titled, are titled immediately. Move now with speed if you want them to pay rates which are taxes on land. I am also happy with your presentation that we should have very clear criteria or criterion around the rates and their valuation."
