"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the problem that we saw in Ruaraka where the national Government paid Kshs1.5 billion for public land is because of the confusion about titles of land. The President issued an order that all schools must be given titles to land. The biggest problem with compensation of primary schools in the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR), the Kibwezi-Kitui and other projects are because of lack of title deeds. People behave as if schools do not own the land. The first objective of the Committee to which this Petition will be referred to is to ensure that primary and secondary schools must be given their title deeds. There is also the misconception and misappropriation of Government entities. They have to share designs and plans with primary schools or any other public institutions. I have seen this in the SGR project in Makueni. There should be proper policy on how to deal with projects that affect school children. Issues such as interference with supply of water to schools or splitting of schools into two like it happened in Makueni need to be addressed very seriously. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
