    "content": "Thank you. My first amendment has been taken care of by Hon. Amina’s amendment. I, therefore, beg to move:- THAT, the third schedule be amended by- (b) deleting the expression ’29.Bangali 39/2/2013”; and (c) deleting the expression “31. Mbalambala 40/2/2013”. The reason as I earlier said is that the proposed gazetted forest area had not been there from Independence time up to 2013. When they gazetted it on 16th December, 2013 they did this from Nairobi without taking the input of the local communities. In the process they ended up closing the social amenities. I have petitioned Hon. Amina and taken her Committee to the ground and we have shown them the realities. It is one thing to conserve and it is another to grab. What is disturbing me most is Article 63 of our Constitution which deals with community land. Article 63(3)(4) and (5) is very clear. This is community land. How can the national Government sit in Nairobi and gazette it as a forest? Thank you."
