    "content": "Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. This issue is also touching on my constituency because I have several schools. Some of the schools were built on forest land in the 1950s and they were not excised officially. Since these schools and hospitals have been there for many years and the forest cover in my constituency is over 20 per cent, which means that we are safe. Could the Ministry as one of the benefits to the communities living around forests, waive these charges which are under the special licence? Could the Ministry waive them so that communities can benefit on the utilization of this land because they have been benefitting since Independence? Could they waive these charges by the Kenya Forest Service because these charges are illegal? The charges are in the Act. Could the Ministry waive the charges because these are non-profit making institutions?"
