"content": " I am Hon. Tongoyo in another capacity. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to take this opportunity to thank all Members who have contributed to this Motion on the State of Security in the Six Counties of the North Rift: Baringo, Elgeyo Marakwet, Turkana, West Pokot, Samburu and Laikipia, which were declared disturbed. For those of us from Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) or areas that are generally disturbed, this Government has done a lot, although there are still pockets of problems. In the 11th Parliament, when I first came here, and now in the 13th Parliament, the difference is like day and night. Many activities have now resumed normalcy. It is evident that many Members support the recommendations developed in the Report and inquiry. They are also ready to support the legislative and other measures that will enable conflict to cease in these areas. In their contributions, many Members raised pertinent issues, particularly those that threaten the safety and stability of the region, with broader implications for national security. As a way of reply, in February 2023, the then Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration gazetted these areas of the North Rift as disturbed and declared a national emergency. In recognition of this, when the Committee did the inquiry, it came up with a raft of recommendations. Key among them is disarmament, where we must take illicit arms from civilians, initiation of a systematic intelligence-led operation to dismantle criminal networks operating in the region and establishment of strong National Government administrative structures. We noted that many of these areas do not have any form of administrative footprint, which is why they are largely seen as ungoverned. We also recommended adopting and deploying modern security surveillance systems by integrating advanced technologies, such as drones, Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected Vehicles (MRAPV), armoured personnel carriers, and air surveillance, among others. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."

The House should follow up on these recommendations for implementation. In particular, the Committee on Implementation should prioritise most of these matters. Once again, as a Committee, we thank you and the Clerk for the support extended to facilitate us in carrying out this task seamlessly. With those remarks, I beg to reply. Thank you."
