    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to read a petition on behalf of the people of Mochongoi in Baringo South Constituency. I, the undersigned, on behalf of the citizens of Kenya and the residents Mochongoi Settlement Scheme in Baringo South Constituency, draw the attention of the House to the following: THAT, Mochongoi Settlement Scheme is located in Baringo South Constituency. The said scheme was established in 1989 by the Government consisting of three phases. That is Phase I- Block107 - Mochongoi; Phase II - Block 110 - Kamailel and Phase III - Block 111 - Kimoriot; THAT, Phase 1 - Block 107 - Mochongoi has 2,673 plots and only 1,411 plots have been allocated letters of allotment while the rest have no title deeds and the whole parcel has not been de-gazetted; THAT, Phase II - Block 110 - Kamailel has a total of 1,779.7 hectare plots and 550 plots were issued with allotment letters and the Settlement Fund Trust (SFT) was paid, but the title deeds were not issued; THAT, Phase III-Block 111- Kimoriot has acreage of 2,316 hectares. Only 843 plots have allotment letters and SFT has been paid fully. The remaining ones have not been issued with allotment letters. The SFT was not paid and, hence they have not been given title deeds; THAT, the three blocks host a population of over 40,000 who always access Government services such as health services and water. The scheme is endowed with massive infrastructure development that has been done by the Government. Regrettably, many plots within the scheme have no title deeds and, hence that is hampering the rate of economic development of the area. Therefore, your humble Petitioners pray that the National Assembly, through the Departmental Committee on Lands:- (i) Intervenes to ensure that the Petitioners’ plight is addressed by de-gazetting the said piece of land and issues title deeds to all the people who are settled in the scheme without further delay; and, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
