    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I just wanted to follow up on the Petition by hon. Justice Kemei. Let me start by thanking you very much for the direction you have given with regard to petitions. This is because the truth of the matter is that petitions have become rituals in this House. Indeed, it is true that when members of the public petition the House, it is for a particular reason. Turning to the Petition by hon. Kemei, my request to the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade is that this matter does not just affect Muhoroni Sugar Company only. I am aware that we are already having a debate which touches on this matter. This is a matter that will affect even other entities like SONY Sugar Company and Chemelil Sugar Company. So, hon. Speaker, I will be glad that when finally they delve into this matter--- It is true that as we privatise we need to understand that part of the land belongs to the community, or it used to belong to the community. If this matter is not handled properly, it could very well be a source of conflict, which can be avoided if we handle the Petition by the hon. Justice Kemei in a proper manner. I thank you, hon. Speaker."
