    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. My Ministry has already embarked on a reafforestation programme aimed at rehabilitating the degraded Maragoli Hills Forest Reserve in Vihiga District. Specifically, the Kenya Forest Service in partnership with other stakeholders is undertaking the following measures to ensure that the forest reserve is rehabilitated for environmental and biodiversity conservation:- (i) Rehabilitation of the hills by planting indigenous trees. During this year’s tree planting season, a total of 187 hectares of land have been planted with trees. (ii) The process of preparing a participatory management plan for better management of the forest reserve with emphasis on conservation and rehabilitation of the water catchment areas is going on. (iii) The re-afforestation exercise will be scaled up during the next planting season through allocation of more resources and the involvement of other stakeholders."
