    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, the Third Schedule be amended by deleting the expressions – (a) “122 Kitalale L.N. No. 2/1977; and (b) “262 Makunga L.N. 23/2013. ‘Kitalale’ appears in the Third Schedule. This is land that people already live in. It was initially a forest. In 1992, the former President Moi, through the Settlement Fund Trustee, allocated the land to squatters who moved in, in 1992, 1995 and 1997. About 100 per cent of the land is occupied by squatters. Since it appears in the Schedule, it seems that Kitalale has not been degazetted. The land has been surveyed and the Government is in the process of issuing title deeds. It appearing in the Third Schedule means that it is a forest area and that disadvantages the people who would want to undertake development within that area. I plead with the House to support this amendment because these are needy Kenyans. They also want to engage in meaningful activities. We even have public utilities such as schools within the area that people and the Government have invested in. There are secondary and primary schools within that area. There are also hospitals in the area. The people of Kitalale plead with this House to accept this amendment to have it removed from the Third Schedule."
