    "content": "Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Sessional Paper on National Land Use Policy. This is a very important document. Kenya got its Independence in 1963, but we are getting a National Land Use Policy in 2017. This is telling of how we have missed in terms of having a grounding policy. We all know that land is a major and important factor of production. Prices of land are not controlled. Nobody determines how much you sell a piece of land for, whether it is in the urban or in the rural areas. When it comes to development, whether in the rural areas or in urban centres, everybody puts a claim to land. Over the years, the only land that has been seen to be fallow belongs to nobody; it is pastoralists land in arid and semi-arid lands. That is not true because whereas they might not be used by agrarians, that land can have proper use by the pastoralist for pasture, water and rangeland.
