    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I need a few clarifications from the Vice-Chairman. Firstly, we have many integrated IDPs in Marakwet West Constituency, especially in Sengwere Ward, who have not been compensated. I want to know when they will be compensated. Secondly, we have squatters who have been living in Lalak Forest in Marakwet West since 1961. They were initially 14 families but they have since multiplied to over 300 families. We want to know when the Government is going to resettle those squatters. Thirdly, in 1994, the Government took land from some families within Kapswor Town to set up the District Headquarters for Marakwet District then. To-date, those families have not been compensated. They were given land in Chebara Forest but the Kenya Forest Service (KFS) have since taken it back. I want to know what the Government is doing to ensure that those people either get back their land or they are compensated, so that they can live in peace."
