    "content": "thank you hon. Speaker. Pursuant to Standing Order No 44(2)(c), I wish to request a statement from the Chairperson of the Committee on Lands regarding the encroachment and issuance of title deeds within the Lake Naivasha riparian reserve. Lake Naivasha is wetland of international importance, with over 300 bird species. Its economic contribution is of both regional and national importance. Destruction of the lakes in the riparian reserve would severely affect its ecological balance and hinder its environmental sustainability. In his statement, the Chairperson should inquire and report on the number of title deeds that have been issued for land under the gazetted area within the riparian reserve and the ownership of the said title deeds. Two, he should report on the measures the Department of Lands and the National Land Commission are taking to cancel the illegal title deeds and reclaim the reserve and access roads to the lake that may also have been allocated to private individuals. Thank you, hon. Speaker."
