    "content": "c) On what the Government is doing to address the plight of integrated IDPs who were victims of violence between 1992 and 2007 and who formed the bulk of IDPs in the Western region, I wish to state as follows:- The previous Government intervention programmes were specifically targeting 2007/2008 post-election violence victims. The Ministry was aware of the existence of victims of previous violence but could not address their plight or resettle them because there was no framework that defined how far back in time we could go in resettling IDPs or what other categories of IDPs could be assisted. With the coming into force of the “Prevention, Protection and Assistance to Internally Displaced Persons and Affected Communities Act, 2012”, the National Consultative Coordination Committee which is the body legally mandated to make these determinations; the issue of previous victims will be dealt with. One of the challenges that will, however, be faced in addressing their plight is to determine their numbers as they were never officially profiled. d) Comprehensive data, inclusive of names from the 2008 government exercise for all profiled IDPs is provided in various tables in annex 2. The data includes lists of IDPs and forest evictees settled in GoK procured farms, list of payment of various cash transfers made to IDPs including those paid Kshs10,000 start-up capital, Kshs25,000 for reconstruction of burnt houses and Kshs400,000 resettlement in lieu of land. e) On comparative analysis of how much money in total has been spent by Government in resettling IDPs from outside western region including an analysis of compensation provided per household, I wish to respond as follows:- For the last five years, the Ministry has received Kshs4,291,142,912 as distributed in Table 1 here below:-"
