    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I first of all support the Motion. I agree with the Seconder, Dr. Oundo, who is my neighbour back home, that land is central to development and our social structures. Any attempts that improve the way in which we ease its utilisation, improve the accuracy of its utilisation or reduce the abuses that have gone on in the land registries are extremely useful. There is no society that we know of that has been able to take off development-wise without sorting out their land affairs. A society can sit on resources that are not being released to those who can use them better. It can lose confidence in its registry such that modern institutions like banks are unable to make use of it. It can also cause enormous conflict within communities and society. Anything that improves its accuracy is of paramount importance over all the other things we do. Even if you think of our current focus on the Big Four Agenda, if the land sector does not work, half of all of those things will not be realised. Anything that goes towards reducing the evil hand of man - because sometimes the hand of man is evil - is useful.
