    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The current directors of Embakasi Ranching Company and Buru Buru Farmers Company Limited were elected on 26th May, 2006 until 1st January, 2002 respectively. As regards Ngindu Farmers Company and Githunguri Farmers Company, we do not appear to have records of their registration. (b) The Attorney-General accepted the recommendations of the Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission (KACC) that the eight directors of Embakasi Ranching Company Limited be charged with the offence of failing to hold an annual general meeting for the period 2002, 2003 and 2004 contrary to Section 131(1) and 131(5) of the Companies Act, Cap.486 of the Laws of Kenya. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, they were so charged under Criminal Case No.2457 of 2005 and acquitted on 30th September, 2008. The directors of Buru Buru Farmers Company Limited asked for more time to convene an annual general meeting as they had some leadership wrangles and pending court cases. (c) No member of the company has applied to the Registrar of Companies in accordance with Section 131(2) of the Companies Act to enable the Registrar take appropriate action. (d) When the Registrar of Companies receives such an application from members of the company under Section 131(1) of the Companies Act, appropriate action will be taken."
