    "content": "(ii) Failure by the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning to conclude surveying and sub-division of purchased land and issuance of title deeds, which had led to IDPs being settled in makeshift structures thereby living in deplorable conditions where basic sanitation amenities were lacking. (iii) The Ministry of Land and Physical Planning had not prioritised resettlement of IDPs since 2012 when the land was purchased. (iv) The process of IDPs resettlement was not planned well, given the period it had taken for the process to be completed. Arising from the findings on resettlement of IDPs, the Committee recommended the following amongst others, under the audit query: 1. The Principal Secretary (PS) Ministry of Land and Physical Planning ensures that the land purchased for IDPs settlement program is surveyed and sub-divided within three months of adoption of this Report by the House. 2. The PS Ministry of Land and Physical Planning ensures issuance of title deeds to beneficiaries of land purchased under IDPs Settlement Program, within six months of adoption of this Report by the House. 3. The Auditor-General undertakes a special audit on the land purchased under IDPs by the Agricultural Settlement Fund Trustees and report to the National Assembly, within three months of adoption of this Report by the House. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I conclude, allow me to thank your Office and that of the Clerk of the National Assembly for the support extended during the consideration of the Reports. I also extend the Committee’s appreciation to the Office of the Auditor-General and the National Treasury for the complementary role they continue to play in overseeing public funds."
