    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to seek a Statement from the Chairman on the Standing Committee on Lands and Natural Resources. I seek this Statement regarding the intended allocation of the 400 acres of land at Kanyanyooni, Kitui West Constituency of Kitui County. The land in question is public land as defined under Article 62(2) of the Constitution. From reliable information that I have, the Cabinet Secretary intends to allocate the said land to the National Security Intelligence (NSI) contrary to the Constitution. To the best of my knowledge, neither the people nor Kitui County Government have been consulted on matters of allocation of the land which is held in trust for the people of the county of Kitui. In giving his statement, the Chairperson should state why the Cabinet Secretary went ahead to approve a third development plan for allocating the said land without seeking the views of people. In the meantime, pending this statement, could the Cabinet Secretary give this House her assurance that the land in Question will not be allocated to NSI or any other person until there are full consultations with the people of Kitui County?"
