    "content": "(Hon. Salim Mvurya): Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir and Hon. Members. I also thank the Majority Leader for the comprehensive nature of the supplementary question. I take this opportunity in this House to assure Kenyans that the reforms we have put in the State Department of Mining are bearing fruit. One of the key reforms we are bringing forward is on decisive clamping of illegal mining activities across the country. Last year in October, the Cabinet passed a resolution to establish a mining police unit, which I report to this House that we have received. All the officers have now reported. We have done orientation so that they can understand the mining law and issues. One of the things we have done is that there was a very big mining area in Dabel, Marsabit County, which has now been closed because of the issues of illegal mining. We have also closed Koru in Isiolo."
