    "content": "Under Section 159, the Land Laws (Amendment) Bill envisages that we shall create a scientific formula of maximum and minimum acreage which was a big contention in the whole country. This was a sour point for many people especially those who own large acreage. They were wondering how can a law be brought that will make one have 50 acres instead of their 1000 acres. After consulting with many stakeholders, we feel that the Land Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2015 should now harmonize all the land laws in Kenya. It should also make working within the two departments; that is the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development and the NLC harmonize and deliver to wananchi the services they require regarding the issue of land."
