    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have done a lot of things as the Government. Some of the Government initiatives include deployment of Anti-Stock Theft Unit (ASTU) in various cattle rustling prone areas. We have also set up provincial and district peace committees. Before undertaking some of these initiatives, we agreed with hon. Members who come from the cattle rustling areas including Naivasha to encourage other peace initiatives such as using Non-Government Organisations and involving peace processes. We have cross-border meetings by Government officials and other leaders. For example, recently, there was a meeting in Mbale, Uganda, between our Government officials and their counterparts from Uganda. We have beefed up security to deter the would-be cattle rustlers. As I mentioned earlier, the disarmament exercise must be initiated in order for us to recover the guns in the wrong hands. A number of illegal guns are in the wrong hands. The Government is going to disarm all those who have illegal guns."
