"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think that is a very important question. But the hon. Member should bear with me that, in fact, less than 30 per cent of the country has been adjudicated fully and title deeds issued. So, land adjudication in nearly 70 per cent of the country has not been completed. The people do not have title deeds. We had a certain legislation changed with regard to land adjudication. If there is any piece of land that stands in the way of issuing titles to other lands which have no disputes, those kinds of objections cannot delay the process. But I must emphasise to the House that the work can only proceed as fast as hon. Members would wish if sufficient funds are given to us. That would enable us to expedite the process. But I know that the question of land ownership is a source of conflict. If communities and Kenyans cannot make a determination as to who is the owner of the land, that, in itself, is a source of conflict. So, coming from where I come from, I would have wanted that to be done within the next five years. But that depends on the funds that are available."
