    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to request for a Statement. Pursuant to Standing Order No.44(2)(c), I wish to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Lands regarding the rampant cases of squatters eviction especially in Kisauni Constituency and in the larger coastal area and the country in general. In April, 2013, the National Land Commission directed that no eviction of squatters or the landless occupying public or any other parcel of land shall take place until the Commission develops guidelines and the necessary laws for eviction. I, therefore, wish to request the Committee to urgently inquire into the many cases of ongoing squatters’ eviction throughout the country with a view to make a Statement to the House of its findings as soon as possible."
