"content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to speak. This is a very important Commission that the country has been waiting for with bated breath because issues of land in this country, apart from being emotive, if they can be properly handled and resolved, can stimulate economic growth in our country. There are many farmers out there - and I want to agree with Mr. Murungi. When I was in Tigania and Meru, many people complained that they have land, but adjudication and survey has not been carried out. They cannot access any meaningful funding, either through banks or other lending institutions, to develop their land. If the question of land is resolved, then many farmers can access loans using their title deeds. We can improve the food security in our country. Looking into the future, the Commission, even as we pass these names which I support, I think the two Principals and the Committee of Parliament have done a good job. I want to put it on record that we support Dr. Tororei who is a Kenyan, qualified in every aspect and I think he is competent enough to take charge and responsibility of that very important Commission."
