    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that KPLC has not paid for wayleave to some residents of Kwa Ndolo and Kivingoni in Yatta Constituency, who do not have title deeds. However, those affected are in the process of acquiring title deeds and will be compensated as soon as they get them. (b) I am not aware that the payments for the wayleave are too little as they are based on the following criteria: Value of the land affected by the wayleave trace, and the size of the wayleave trace affected for each resident. Other mitigation factors like the size of the affected land as well as the size of the remaining portion that is not affected are also considered when arriving at the amount of portion of land. The KPLC does not fully purchase the affected areas of land parcels but only issues restrictions on the use of the affected portions. Therefore, it does not compensate at full value unless the affected parcels are already too small to the extent of compromising the safety of its owners or users. (c) It is not legally prudent for KPLC to accept for payment, other documents of ownership from the Ministry of Lands and Housing where title deeds are not available. Documents other than tittle deeds are rejected in order to avoid any counter-claims that may arise later."
