    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, when the Minister was answering the Question, he clearly indicated that what this Government has done was to gazette an intention to create districts. They are now gathering information and coming up with a programme and all the proposals will be brought into this House before the districts are declared. So, no new district has been created. That is the system we are proposing so that when the Government brings those proposals, it does so together with the rest of the 28 districts so that we can follow the law. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, by creating new districts haphazardly, we are going to multiply conflicts. We have a district that was created recently which neighbours my constituency, called Tharaka District. That district has boundaries overlapping with Tigania and year in, year out, we have border conflicts because of the way the district was created very hurriedly. If you were to gazette that, you will be saying that the Tigania and the Tharaka should continue fighting."
