    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This Bill operationalises Article 63 of the Constitution. It is trying to solve a number of issues that are affecting this country. Land issues in this country are very emotive. Looking at some of the problems that this country has faced since Independence, the central part of it has been land. Part II, Clauses 4 to 14, elucidate community land rights. It shows how community land is supposed to be owned, the ownership, the tenure system and when and how a community shall possess and dispossess land. It outlines how community land can be protected under registration of community land and rights. A number of communities in this country have had their land dispossessed. They have been dispossessed because of lack of knowledge, information and because they lack the know-how. They do not understand their rights as pertains to land 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."
