    "content": " Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to make a few comments in support of the Motion. Just like other colleagues of mine, I am of the view that the Ministry has been given too little money. It should have been given at least three times this much because this Ministry handles very serious matters in this country. Land is very sensitive. It is where we have the greatest number of historical injustice in this country and for that reason, the Ministry deserves to be funded properly. We have cases of delay of processing of title deeds like in my constituency. We have Kibigori Settlement Scheme where we have allotment letters now almost five years and not title deeds yet for those who have paid the required amounts. If we give the Ministry this little money, such cases will remain pending because they need money to process such issues. The Ministry also needs money to deal with the IDPs. My colleagues have talked about it. This is one of the cases we have in this country today. There are people who were chased from their farms after the last elections. They need money from the Ministry. The Ministry deals with squatters. In my constituency, there are over 10,000 squatters. We have requested the Ministry to help us sort out the issue of squatters in Muhoroni"
