I would have hoped that hon. Members who are in this House when they were enacting that law should have taken that matter into consideration. I believe the hon. Member was a Member of Parliament at that particular time. I think this is an issue we can revisit for special consideration if they write to us through the Forest Zonal Officer a strong appeal from the community. I think this is an issue which the Board of Kenya Forest Service can re-look at and give advice on whether they can be able to give a waiver."}
