    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Minister for her answer, but also draw her attention to the fact that under Article 7(2)(d) of the Rome Statute, deportation or forceful transfer of population is a crime. Those who brutalized populations after the 2007elections intended to forcefully get them out of their homes and they managed. When the Government adopts a policy of resettling them outside the areas where they were, it is being complicit in the offence of deportation. Could the Minister tell us why the Government cannot find land in the area or the neighborhood where each IDP came from? If they came from Molo, resettle them in the Molo area. If they came from Kuresoi, resettle them in the Kuresoi area. Otherwise, the Government is aiding and abetting and giving the impression that all you need to forcefully remove populations from an area is to create problems and the Government will assist you in transportation. Could she consider giving these people money? They had already found their own land which was inadequate and therefore, the conditions deplorable. There are people who are enterprising and can buy their own farms. Why not give them the cash and then they will buy their own farms? Then you do not have to be transporting people contrary to the law."
