    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is a very important question. It is very alive to all of us. Again, if you agree with the earlier suggestion I provided in the questions by Sen. Kwamboka, then that should also apply to Sen. Lelegwe. When the Committees will be in place, they will identify the owners of those livestock so that they can come forward to be documented for purposes of compensation. This is because I have seen that issue has raised a serious national discourse on destruction of livestock. However, what is missing in this discourse are the owners of those livestock. When put in place, the committee will deal with this so that we then have a face to it, when we are talking about compensating and dealing with people who lost their livestock. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if I may; I request Sen. Lelegwe, and that is why when you gave that order, I suspect that it will be important even for the Committee to visit the place and interrogate those issues. Therefore, if we can form the Committees as directed by you in two weeks’ time then before we go on recess the answer should be brought. In the meantime, I commit to also call the office of the Inspector General of Police to start taking action to ensure that further destruction of livestock does not take place and to ensure that the conflict between ranch owners and livestock owners, whether trespassing or not, is mitigated and minimized."
