Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, anybody who watches television must have seen the clips and the kind of violence that was meted out on that former mayor. Is the Deputy Prime Minister satisfied that the use of violence by the council askaris under the circumstances could be justified?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am glad that the Minister has raised the issue of the ESP and, as a result of it, in my constituency, we made available some Kshs20 million towards the upgrading of the district hospital only recently. However, we have encountered problems from the Ministry of Public Health and Sanitation, who insist that they are responsible for this money and will not allow us to put it in a hospital that falls under the Ministry of Medical Services.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is good to note that the Minister is answering the Question today. This Question was deferred last week so that the Minister could go and look at the list that was laid on the Table by the hon. Member for Gatundu North. I have not heard her make any mention to that list other than confirm that there are IDPs in Gatundu. Could she tell the House the findings from the report laid on the Table by the hon. Member for Gatundu North?
