    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise, pursuant to Standing Order No. 53 (1), to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations regarding measures put in place to address insecurity in Turkana County, including cross-border conflicts. In the Statement, the Committee should - (1) State measures put in place by the national and Turkana County governments to address insecurity issues arising from cross-border conflicts in the county, particularly between the local community and the Mursi tribe of Ethiopia, Karamojong tribe of Uganda and Toposa tribe of South Sudan, which have had an adverse impact on the development of the county; (2) Provide an update on the progress of implementation of the framework agreement for the allocation of 9,000 hectares of land for military use between the Turkana County Government and the Ministry of Defence, that would deter criminal activities; and, (3) Explain the rationale behind the Government's decision to deploy police officers to Haiti while there are inadequate security personnel in Turkana County to effectively deal with the security challenges. Thank you."
