    "content": " I beg to respond. The total award for the compensation of the owners of the parcels of land acquired for construction of this particular road, St. Mary's, Kinoro/Kiyanjuku/Bogori Road was Kshs115,662,825. The KeRRA received Kshs28,999,599 from the National Treasury and disbursed the money to the National Land Commission (NLC) on 12th October, 2023. Madam Temporary Speaker, the Kshs28.9 million received for this specific road project was paid out on a priority basis, starting from kilometer zero where the road starts. This explains why some landowners have not been compensated while others have. However, the remaining balance of Kshs86.6 million will be paid to the remaining landowners as soon as the funds are received from the National Treasury. Cognizant of my background statement, we will work closely with the National Treasury to ensure that we continue with the compensation as soon as budgetary provision and cash flow releases for the budget ceiling already provided is provided. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
