    "content": "degenerated because of the injustices that were done to the Mau Mau. Now we have another lot of IDPs. I want to support this Report as a wake-up call. It does not offer a ready menu for the settlement of IDPs, but is just a quick reminder to this House that, that problem still exists. Those camps still exist. All the theoretical and rhetoric we have heard from the Government that it will do this or that is still far from getting to where the problem is. The Government has not sorted out the IDP problem. What else can this Parliament do? Just to sit here for three financial years and continue talking? The Member for Naivasha will still travel this evening and see the camps. There will be over 10,000 people waiting for the Government to take action. If those people must remain in tents, then why can we not have new tents so that we do not lose them? They have persevered serious storms, particularly around Kikopey and Mai Mahiu. Could the Government own up and accept that there is an emergency and supply new tents to those people so that they can sleep tonight? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if it is within the new Constitution, I would have urged this House to conduct a Session outside Vumilia IDP Camp. We put our tent there and conduct our business so that you can see how much the bad management by Government smells. You will understand how pregnant women and ladies who do not have sanitary towels feel when they see people who are supposed to be feeding them divert food. This is a very emotional debate. This Report should be adopted in its entirety. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in conclusion, if this House represents the wishes of the people, then certain things should be possible. We should look at the Minister in the eyes and tell him to do 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. If they must keep people in the tents, then let them use metallic ones now because it is seems like they are going to take a long long time before they come to the realities and be able to settle these families. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
