    "content": "Washiali. He is a great person. Anyway, I am not here to praise him, but to tell the truth. In fact, I have deposited him in my heart, and so he should not worry. This brings sanity and responsibility to unit owners. The Bill also provides for registration of the sectional plans approved by the county government. In the law of contract, there are agreements, consideration and execution. A purchaser and vendor must be there to enter into an agreement. Land appreciates but motor vehicles depreciate. The merits of the Bill are as follows. First, this Bill seeks to simplify the process of registering sectional properties and create an enabling environment for investors and property owners. Secondly, the Bill guarantees rights of property owners by conferring absolute rights to unit owners. The person who has been giving us problems and troubles is the Director of Survey. I have seen the Cabinet Secretary and Principal Secretary but the Director of Survey has conflict of interest. He wants to be given something so that he can release title deeds. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want your office and Hon. Washiali’s to move with speed and assist me. The Bill also vests reversionary interest in individual unit’s owners. Lawyer, Advocate of High Court and Member for Suba North, Hon. Millie this is your third term. You are a great person. I also told His Excellency that you are a great woman. You can ask him. You have been supporting me, and so I will tell the truth. Anyway you have talked about statute laws, and I want us to be serious with the Sectional Properties Bill because it will be the best solution in solving sectional property. You have seen Muraya. He was a great man but he is having many problems. If we pass this Bill with speed it will be the solution. As I finish, this Bill also provides for revision of the term of lease from 45 years to 21 years to align it with the provision of land registration in terms of Section 30, Cap 2(b). The Bill provides for a dispute resolution mechanism through a dispute resolution committee established under Clause 2, unlike the Sectional Properties Act of 1987. Anyway, it is going to address the tribunal issues. In other ways, it is going be the structured mechanism of providing solutions to conflicts regarding issues of properties. The Chairperson, Hon. Rachael, and the entire committee have done a great job. We shall support them fully. I have no doubt in my mind that you have the capacity, ability and the structured communication. Move with speed to assist Members of Parliament like me. I have raised two issues. One, you must make sure that the 1,000 acres… There are over 15,000 individuals who took possession and occupation in the last over 50 years. Then what is it that is holding them from… I went to see the County commissioner. I have gone to several offices even to His Excellency the President who is in charge of everything. He called Dr. Muraguri and the Cabinet Secretary, Farida Karoney. So, what is the problem and yet we own this Government? Article 1 of our Constitution says the country belongs to citizens of this country. So, what is the problem? There is red tape and bureaucracy. We must get rid of bureaucracy. I want data to be digital. I want digitisation of data in the lands docket. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. It is my honour to sit down. I truly and fully support.
