In the statement, the committee should address the following- (1) The circumstances that led the Nandi County Government to carry out demolitions of small-scale trader stalls in Kapsabet town without prior notice despite traders having already paid for their 2025 trading licenses for the affected premises to the Nandi County Government. (2) The reasons for the relocation of traders to a new market that lacks basic amenities such as toilets. For the information of the House, I have visited that market. You will find that women do not have access to toilets and other utilities. (3) The number of traders impacted by the demolitions and the extent of financial losses incurred by each trader and its plan for compensation. (4) Rationale behind the demolition of Namgoy Trading Center in Nandi County given that no alternative location was provided for the displaced traders at Namgoy Shopping Center. (5) The measures in place by the County Government to compensate traders for the loss of businesses resulting from relocation, demolition from Kapsabet Central Business District (CBD) and also from Namgoy Junction demolitions.
