"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I support the Report by the Departmental Committee on Lands on the inquiry into alleged land irregularities. It is important that we include the amendment. We should also look into the overall policy as the Member who has just spoken said. We know for sure that quite a number of schools do not have title deeds. If this particular Report is implemented, we should also take cognisance of other public utilities that are subject to grabbing. We know that there are institutions that must be provided for whenever we subdivide land. In this particular case of Ruaraka, if we do not adopt the recommendations in this Report, it will have greater implications in other institutions. The EACC alone may not really help us a lot. The Commission and the Ministry need to computerise. Even as we try to secure those parcels that belong to our schools and institutions by giving them title deeds, we should also consider the aspect of computerisation so that there is no room for those people who are bent on grabbing any public land they see around. I agree that it is critical that this matter is considered according to the recommendations of this Report. We should take further measures by ensuring that the computerisation of documents is adopted. I beg to support this Motion."
