Hon. Deputy Speaker, I have heard my colleagues getting answers for Questions they asked before this House. Those Questions were asked a few weeks back. I have a Question which I asked on 21st September 2021 and I have not got an answer up to now.

Hon. Deputy Speaker, my issue is that I asked a Question on 21st September this year relating to land and it was directed to the Cabinet Secretary for Lands and Physical Planning. I have never been called by the said Cabinet Secretary or the Committee at any time or received any response. I was told that I would get a response within three weeks. I am concerned that nobody bothered to look at my Question. A third of my colleagues who asked Questions three weeks ago are getting responses. My concern is why my Question is not being answered. The ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I hereby stand to support Sessional Paper No.1 of 2021 that pertains to water as a natural resource for our people.

However, recently, we have experienced water shortages. As we speak, we are waiting for this season's rain as our rivers have dried up and what we remain with are dry waterbeds. What used to be rivers are now dry valleys. ...

do their work. They just watch from a distance. Theirs is just to come and demand money if there is an ongoing activity like building or cultivation along the river. This is not the right thing. Can we have policies that are going to regulate growing of these eucalyptus trees, and how we are going to use our rivers, to save the next generation? If it remains as it is, we will be remembered that at one particular time, we stood here just to chat in Parliament as the country went to the dogs. That is all, Hon. Temporary Deputy ...

Hon. Speaker, I stand to support the Petition by my colleague, Hon. Mule. We had looked at that Petition. It raises serious issues as pertains to what has been happening from the time the fuel prices were raised. Look at the countries around us as it has been suggested earlier by my colleagues. When we were in Uganda the other day, we found that a litre of petrol was Ksh70, and that fuel passes through Kenya. One wonders why it becomes very expensive now when it comes to Kenya and we are the ones who are supplying Uganda. It is ...

Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Lands the following Question: - (i) When will the disputed boundary between Tharaka Nithi and Meru Counties, along Central Imenti and Tharaka Constituencies, be demarcated as recommended by the Interim Independent Boundaries review Commission – known as the Andrew Ligale- led Commission – in its Report dated 27th November 2010 as well as contained in the Zachary Ogongo-led Task Force Report? (ii) Could the Cabinet Secretary undertake to cause the marking of the boundary points between Imenti Central and Tharaka Constituencies as recommended by the Ogongo- led Task Force Report? ...
