    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that Banita Settlement Scheme was purchased by the Government through the Settlement Fund Trustees to settle squatters within Makongeni area of Rongai in Nakuru District, and other areas of Kenya. The total acreage is 14,115 and not 16,000 acres, as claimed by the hon. Member. The 14,115 acres were purchased at the price of Kshs292,078,280. (b) The first exercise was suspended and nullified in April, 2003, after some squatters in the scheme complained that they were left out during the adjudication and verification stage. The Minister for Lands ordered fresh vetting and verification of squatters based on households within the scheme boundaries. This was done in liaison with the Provincial Administration and local leaders elected by the squatters who completed the exercise in 2003, and all squatters were considered. Planning and survey was done by the Government surveyors to accommodate those who were initially left out. (c) I can provide the list of beneficiaries who were allocated land in Banita Settlement Scheme. Here is the list."
