    "content": "There is the issue of land. Exploration is done on either family or private land. We need to look at this issue as we discuss this Bill, so that there is a balance between the community, the county government and the national Government. We have heard before complaints from exploration companies who get contracts in Nairobi but, when they are on the ground and they need to get started, they are confronted by Members of the County Assemblies (MCAs) or the county governments who want to know the benefit for the county and the people in the locality. That is critical so that we avoid unnecessary conflicts. That way, we will not hold back people who have been given the opportunity to contribute to the economy of the country. We want, as much as possible, to avoid conflicts that we have seen in so many areas, especially in Africa where, instead of oil and gas exploration becoming a boon for the country, it has become a curse. We have been very keen to ensure that we have a win-win scenario in this new oil economy. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
