    "content": "Hon. Members, this is a law-making body, and the least the Government and Members of Parliament can do is to respect the law. There are two orders here. There is one which was issued on the 22nd of November by the High Court in Nyeri. Another one was issued on 24th November, 2010. The one of 22nd November says: “An order for the status quo to be maintained is hereby granted until 24th November, when the case shall be mentioned”. The order for 24th November states as follows: “The plaintiffs’ advocate and the second defendant to liaise with the second defendant to identity and ensure that the squatters in occupation or grazing on the site plan are not evicted nor harassed until this suit is heard and determined”. If, indeed, it is true that there are members of security forces who are harassing Kenyan squatters on the ranch, then it is the Government that is breaking the law. The Chair would be very happy and comfortable if the Vice-President, who is the Leader of Government Business, can say that he will direct that the orders given by the court be respected until the matter is heard."
