    "content": "I wanted to know according to international standards what the definition of riparian land is because some people are abusing it. The National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) and Water Resources Management Authority (WARMA) for instance are using it for purposes of corruption. People bought property and they were told it was owned by the National Housing Corporation (NHC), who sold it to a private developer, who built the houses and sold them. The late Hon. Soita Shitanda who was by then the Minister for Housing officially launched the project. Therefore, we need to benchmark and see what riparian land is. I have seen some governors saying rivers should be moved. So, did you ask about riparian land according to international standards? We need to know more about this issue. So as you benchmark, you must paint a picture of the local scenario and how land is used. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
