    "content": "Hon. Speaker, the second Statement is pursuant to a request by hon. Rachael Nyamai, the Member for Kitui South Constituency. In her request, the hon. Member urged the Committee to inquire into and report on the following:- (i) reasons for encroachment of Kitui South National Park by people from Galole Constituency; (ii) whether any measures have been taken to recover the land, and what the timelines allocated for the exercise are; and, (iii) the correct location of Polling Station No.19 as determined by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC). Hon. Speaker, the third part of the request does not fall under the mandate of our Committee because our Committee is not responsible for the location of polling stations. It falls under the jurisdiction of the Justice and Legal Affairs Committee. So, our answer will focus on the purported encroachment of Kitui South Game Reserve by residents of Galole Constituency, and not on the issues relating to the placement of polling stations by the IEBC. We have written to your office to that effect. The response from the Ministry indicates that Kitui South Game Reserve was gazetted through Legal Notice 106---"
