    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to, first of all, thank you for the opportunity and join my colleagues in hailing the Chairman for the elaborate response that he has given to the House. However, as noted by the good professor, Sen. (Prof.) Ongeri, cases of human- wildlife conflict are on the increase. I served as an Assistant Minister in the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife. I know that year in, year out, the cases of wildlife-human conflicts are increasing. While I was there, we had initiated a programme to fence off all our game reserves and parks. I want to know from him how far the programme of fencing off has gone, so that we can reduce these cases. The Government seems to be spending so much money in compensating people and even that compensation is not enough. A compensation of Kshs400,000 for loss of life is a big joke. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you heard the good Chairman, Senate Committee on Security, Sen. Haji, saying that he will mobilise his people to take spears and kill wildlife."
