I sit in the Departmental Committee on Lands and we did a lot of work in coming up with the final version of the Community Land Bill. I was a bit perplexed when I heard that the Senate had voted out the entire Bill. I wondered where we would go. But I am happy that today we have a mediated version which does not deviate so much from what we agreed in this House. I am sure this law is going to be a beautiful law. It is going to deal with issues of community land, which have been thorny in Kenya. But I have to warn that this Bill is a stop gap measure."}
