    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also rise to support the Petition by the Member for Cherangany, Hon. Kutuny. We have similar problems in Bungoma of de-gazettement of land from Mt. Elgon Forest. When it comes to the provisions of Article 63 of the Constitution where community and communal land is properly provided for, the people of Mt. Elgon who have lived in the moorland in Chepkitale where the forest cannot grow, where you cannot do any kind of farming… It is just grassland and the trees you find there are only shrubs. They have lived there forever since time immemorial. It is important that, as this petition is being considered; those who live in Mt. Elgon should also be considered. By your direction, Hon. Speaker, the Committee should also look at other parts of the country where there are similar problems. Thank you."
