"content": "force the Government to gazette big chunks of land so that there is an artificial shortage of land and the value goes or remains high. In the process, our people are denied the use of that land. I hope the Minister will consult widely before he takes any drastic decisions based on newspaper reports or fitina, fitina of people who are not elected any where. Elected Members of this House are the spokesmen of the people on the ground. We are also able to mobilise them and lobby but we do not want to politicise each and every issue. There is maturity in politics. You do not fight every battle. However, I hope the Minister will consult us. We will be glad to offer any information that he requires whenever he requires it and give him maximum co-operation. Finally, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to mention that the Minister has very competent officers and I wish them well in their work. Any time they want more money, they can count on the support of the Member for Lamu West. I beg to support."
