    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, my recommendation at this stage is that let the Committee on Lands, Environment, and Natural Resources - with your concurrence Mr. Speaker, Sir - come up now with the latest position of Kenya on land use and escalate this to the county level. Let us see what kind of spatial planning they have developed because these days, this has the effect of attracting capital funding for development in various areas. It is money that can easily be available. Investors can come into the country and invest in activities that have been properly planned and done well. In Rwanda, when they developed a city, there was a lot of investment in that place. Therefore, there was a lot of capital flowing into Rwanda thereby increasing the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of that country. Similarly, we can use land as a resource particularly if we follow the regulations and the rules that were set up through the New Urban Agenda in the Sustainable Development Conference that was held in the UN General Assembly. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
