We were seeking your indulgence. It is not that we want to overturn your decision. The last Question on the Order Paper is so vital to us and the Minister is here to answer it. If it can be brought to the House this afternoon, we will really appreciate.

18 Aug 2010 in National Assembly:
asked the Minister for Transport:- (a) whether he could clarify to the House if VoiâTaveta railway line is included in the National Development of the Vision 2030 strategy and at what cost; (b) whether there are new lines which have been erected since Independence aside from the MombasaâKisumuâUganda and NairobiâThika lines built during the colonial period; and, (c) whether he could also confirm if there are negotiations between Kenya and Tanzania governments for the construction of Voiâ MoshiâVoiâDar-es-salaam railway lines

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the railway line from Voi to Taveta and back to Moshi has been idle for the past 20 years. Could the Assistant Minister consider giving that portion of the railway line to a private operator so that the communities living in Voi, Mwatate and Wundanyi could be served? Otherwise, up to now, they are completely stranded, given that even the Voi-Taveta Road is gone. What do you expect the voters of Mwatate, Voi, Wundanyi and Taveta to do? They are completely stranded.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am not satisfied with the answer given by the Assistant Minister. That area has been neglected for years since Independence. The railway line was abandoned and whatever is there is being vandalized. I am surprised that the Assistant Minister can watch as the whole railway line is being abandoned by people and does not take any action and wait for the EAC to do a master plan. When will the Ministry take its assertive role and do something on this railway line between Voi and Taveta?

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, is the Assistant Minister aware that in 1994, this project could not be continued because we shared the lake equally between Kenya and Tanzania and the Tanzanian Government objected to the utilization of the water without due consultation? Could he confirm that?

asked the Minister for Forestry and Wildlife:- (a) whether the Government involved local communities in drawing up boundaries of Tsavo West National Parks and, if so, he could inform the House how many title deeds have been issued from the year 2000 to date; and, (b) what arrangements he has put in place to end human/wildlife conflicts and how the Government plans to compensate victims of lost human and livestock lives.
