    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, there are some times when it is not my officers who actually commit these misconducts or malpractice. In this particular case, the land was allocated by the Provincial Administration. We must understand there was a time when anything coming from the Provincial Administration or from the Office of the President was considered to be the position of the Government. A lot of these alienations bore their approval from the Head of State at that time. You will find that in any allocations of this nature, there would be an approval signed by the President. The officers would then give out the land on the basis that authority had been given by the Head of State. I can tell you and this is something that I am very happy to say in public, that since His Excellency Mwai Kibaki became the President of this Republic, I have never seen any letter for approval of public land to be alienated to anybody. I have never come across such a case. However, from 2002 backwards, you will find that most of these allocations were being approved at the highest level of Government."
