    "content": "Let us look at the root cause. The Sessional Paper No. 10 of 1965 is where marginalisation started. Members who were sitting the way we are sitting decided that areas that could not produce coffee and tea would not be given finances to develop them. You have to take that path. Most of these areas where you hear cattle rustling going on are the people who suffered, like West Pokot was a closed district during the colonial time and when we got Independence it continued up to when Kibaki came in. That is when we saw life. And the current group, the Jubilee Government, we are now seeing tarmac for the first time. we are seeing development. There is even power coming in now. The Committee is talking of licences. You are now enriching police officers on these road blocks. You are enriching livestock officers. These are the people who give out licences. During the Committee of the whole House stage, we will come in and support. Otherwise, I support the Bill."
