    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) There are three judges and magistrates newly posted to Machakos Law Courts who are commuting from Nairobi to Machakos on a daily basis. On the request by the District Security Committee, my Ministry was asked to identify houses to accommodate the three officers taking into account the following factors namely common security arrangement and accessibility. The Ministry explored the estates within Machakos Town where the judges and magistrates could be accommodated and several pool houses were considered. A zone comprising six housing units occupied by various public servants, among them the two doctors, was identified and vacation advice issued to the occupants of those houses. (b) The two affected doctors will be relocated to House Nos. HG2 and HG17. House No.HG17 is a pool house while HG2 is located within the Machakos Level Five Hospital which provides convenience for the doctor to stay within the institution. (c) The Government policy on housing for public servants is to provide housing to those providing essential and strategic services while paying market-based house allowances to all civil servants to enable them access housing equitably in the open rental market."
