"content": "So, five existing statutes will be repealed and together with the Land Bill, we are going to repeal several legislations in matters relating to land. This particular Bill, the purpose for it is to, as I have said, revise, consolidate and rationalize the registration of titles to land. This is specifically the main thrust of this Bill to revise, consolidate and rationalize the registration of titles to land. With every statute or Bill that comes before this House, the principle of devolution in land registration has also been brought on board. Again, this is to address some of the criticisms that have been out there, but a lot of these criticisms have to do with the Bill before it was polished. One of the big problems we have had in the past is that in some of the registries, particularly in Nairobi and Mombasa, when you walk in, there are several registries in a particular registry dealing with different statutes. Like in Nairobi, there is a Nairobi Registry, which deals with basically L.R. titles. Then we have the Central Registry which deals with land which is titled under the Registration of Titles Act. Even in terms of training staff to work within the Ministry and subsequently work for the Commission, it is difficult to operate an institution dealing with various processes of land registration."
