(a) The contract for erecting Dedan Kimathi's statue was awarded to Kenyatta University, Department of Fine Arts at a total cost of Kshs4,983,125. (b) There were efforts by the previous Government to assist the family financially but we are not privy to this information. (c) The Ministry of State for National Heritage is adopting a twin-pronged approach. The Ministry has set up a task force to review the modalities and criteria for honouring heroes and heroines as well as to determine modes of compensation for surviving freedom fighters and their families. The Ministry is crafting a legal framework, now at its formative stage, that once enacted will enable the Government to compensate freedom fighters and other national heroes and heroines. 376 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES April 4, 2007"
