Secondly, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would kindly ask the Minister and her able team to push the donors to recognise the newly created districts with respect to implementation of their programmes. As I speak now, when it comes to relief distribution and any other activity that is done through this Ministry which is highly donor funded, they only take the larger districts. For instance, in the larger Kajiado District, we have three constituencies which have been turned into districts. But when it comes to collection of data or implementation of programmes, the Ministry lumps the new districts with ...

2939 beyond. Therefore, I would like to ask this House to give it the support that it requires and also ask the members of AMANI Forum to be more active and extend their activities to all constituencies in this country. Right now we are talking of reconciliation in this country. We want to forget what happened in 2007 and bring a new chapter of peace, reconciliation and nationhood. This morning we were talking about the good athletes who have done us proud. I think AMANI Forum, given the mandate and the necessary logistics that it requires, can use the athletes ...

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, in the last Parliament, I attended Forum activities in Moroto, Uganda. It was a meeting between the Turkanas, Pokots and Karamajong from the other side. We ran a race. I am happy that the current Chairperson of AMANI Forum was very active. He is the one who facilitated the programme in Moroto, Uganda. That was about the issue of cattle rustling. How can we bring peace to the pastoral communities? I am very sure that with the current energetic Members of Parliament, I have seen that the membership has increased, and if we take the spirit ...

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to assure this House and the hon. Member that some progress has already been made. In fact, as I speak now, the contractors are moving to the ground. In all these projects, tendering has been done. The contracts have been awarded. I called the Authority this morning before I came to this House to confirm whether these contractors have moved to site. I was assured that all of them will be on site within the next two weeks.
