"content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to join this House and the nation in mourning the passing on of our colleague, the late hon. John Michuki. I would like to appreciate that I have great respect for that colleague who has passed away, and that the nation has lost a great man. May I just say that we should really support this Bill? This is what the nation needs. It looks like the process is very clear. The only thing I can say is that it needs to be digitised and be put in a language that is simple enough for every Kenyan to understand. It becomes part and parcel of the identity of a person or family in Kenya. So, it should be supported. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, those who want to look at the Bill will appreciate that it is drafted very nicely to replace many other provisions that are scattered in various Acts. This is a consolidation of laws, and it should be passed to help people to identify and register their land, so that they can deal in it. If they want to dispose of it, at least the registration part of it is made clearer. I hope that conflicts arising from misunderstanding will be sorted out. This touches on our international boundaries and other boundaries that we cannot reach. There are places where boundary marks and boundary features are interfered with. I believe that this is the time to sort out those things, so that we do not have issues that are going to bring this country on the brink of war. With those very few remarks, I support the Bill."
