    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, is the Minister aware that because of erroneous classification there are several IDPs who are facing injustice? For instance, in Nyanza Province around Kisii and Kisumu, there are IDPs who have been classified as “returnees” and “integrated”. We have seen people with both limbs missing and they have never benefitted from a cent of the money that was given. There are people who have lost their loved ones and property. However, because of the erroneous classification, we have several IDPs who are being discriminated against. What is the Government doing to ensure that proper classification is used so that those people who were displaced - whether by their own communities, whether by other communities, whether from their localities or others, whether they had purportedly gone back home or not - are considered as IDPs? I want to give an example of Nyanza Province where women who ran away from other places have gone back and have not been accepted if they are not married because culturally they cannot. So, they are staying in centres where they have to pay rent and they have not been given even a cent. What is the Minister doing to redress that issue?"
