"content": "encroachment, ill planned and irregular settlement, as well as illegal forest resources extraction. This led to the formation of a taskforce on the conservation of the Mau Forest Complex in 2009, which made several recommendations on the management and conservation of forests throughout the country. While I support the evictions of the persons who have encroached the forest, we urge the Government to ensure that the evictions in the Mau Forest Complex are done in a humane manner. I also urge the Government to amicably solve the stalemate surrounding the eviction of Kibera residents, on the stretch of land destined as a road reserve, as more than 30,000 livelihoods are involved. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I, therefore, wish to draw the attention of the Senate on this matter and appeal to the national Government, through the Ministry of Environment and Forestry, to intervene and take necessary action in safeguarding the Mau Forest Complex and all the other forests in the country and also to initiate measures aimed at increasing the forest coverage area in the country."
