13 Nov 2013 in National Assembly:
The efforts the Government has made to ensure that the land reverts to KARI are as follows: Some parcels of KARI land were irregularly and illegally alienated to private individuals and entities, and the Ministry was pursuing repossession and restoration of the same to KARI. This concerns LR No.3989/1, which measures 28 hectares. The land was allocated to a Mr. J.M. Hungu in 1995. LR No.5211, that measures 514.4 hectares, was allocated to M/s Kimonda Ltd. and Kingpin Kenya in 1997, who have since subdivided it and sold some of the plots. KARI is, however, in possession of the land. ...

On the concerns of the Committee, KARI Naivasha Centre, the Committee noted that the role played by the centre in the development of dairy, poultry, sheep and goats as well as a Sahiwal Research Programme was enormous. The centre holds the largest Sahiwal pure breed herd in the world and, therefore, is of economic value to the country. Furthermore the centre supplies improved animal genotypes to pastoral communities, thereby improving their livestock and income.

On the protection of public land from encroachment, the Committee observed that Isahakia Self Help Group were enjoying protection from the Administration Police, and that administration personnel have been reluctant to give the institute the required assistance in evicting the invaders. A High Court ruling dated 23rd March, 2012, ordered them to vacate the land within 45 days. On the delayed repossession of KARI land, the Committee observed that the Provincial Administration was reluctant to come to the institute’s aid. This is because the invaders settled on the land with the help of armed police officers. The Committee noted that ...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I will begin with the concerns of hon. Aramat. Indeed, it is only that the Member was not in the House, and I understand the problem that he was going through in his constituency. The answer to his Statement was availale in his pigeon hole from yesterday. It is only that he was not around, but now that he has the response, he has interrogated it. On the issue of several pieces of land that belong to KARI being encroached on, I am on record, as the Chair, during the interrogation of KARI when the management and ...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I will be magnanimous enough to comment a little on what my Member has said. It is only necessary that this House handles matters as they come. The Isahakia case is a matter that the Member is very well placed to bring to my Committee as a member of the Committee also. He can afford to raise the same as an injustice, so that we can tackle it. For now, the question that was raised was about KARI getting its land back. Therefore, his is misplaced information for now.

Thank you so much, hon. Deputy Speaker. I have a Statement that was sought by the hon. Member for Narok East, hon. Aramat Lemanken. I was trying to look around to see whether the hon. Member is in the House. I found that he is not, but following your earlier ruling during the week, we are supposed to be digital, as Parliament. I have found out that the hon. Member is on his way from his constituency. He had some things that he was doing there. Administratively, I know Statements like mine are supposed to be read tomorrow in the ...
