INTRODUCTION Kenya, through its long-term development blue print, Kenya Vision 2030, aims at “providing the country’s population with adequate and decent housing in a suitable environment� by 2030. For this to be a reality, the blueprint document six challenges that need addressing. One challenge of particular interest to this report is “insufficient serviced land�. Against this challenge, a specific goal of the country by Kenya Vision 2030 is to improve livelihoods of slum dwellers through a Flagship Project, “Install physical and social infrastructure in slums in 20 urban areas to formalise slums, permit construction of permanent houses, and attract private investment�. Vis-à-vis, the Government of the Republic of Kenya is implementing a number of slum upgrading projects, one of which is “The Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project (KISIP)�. KISIP, [which is funded by the Government of Kenya (GoK), together with the World Bank (WB), the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA), and the French Development Agency (AFD)], has an overall objective of “improving living conditions in informal settlements in selected Kenyan municipalities. It is designed with four components. The component related to this report is, “Investing in infrastructure and service delivery�, which is designed to support investment in settlement infrastructure and, where necessary, extension of trunk infrastructure to settlements. A core design feature of KISIP is that proposed interventions are community targeted, and at a scale that allows for local operation and maintenance. KISIP has contracted CAS Consultants Ltd. to undertake consultancy services for socio- economic surveys, infrastructure upgrading plans, and detailed engineering designs in selected informal settlements in Nairobi, Machakos, and Naivasha municipalities. In Machakos Municipality, the beneficiary informal settlements are Kariobangi, and Swahili; while in Nairobi they are Kayole Soweto and KCC (Embakasi); and, in Naivasha they are Kihoto, Karagita, Kamere, and Tarabete/Kasarani informal settlements. As part of the consultancy, a Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement that is acceptable to KISIP, the WB, and NEMA is required. This report is in fulfilment of this output. The overall objective of the RAP Report is to present an entitlement resettlement assistance package that is aimed at adequately re-installing persons from the Informal Settlement that would be affected on implementation of KISIP in the Settlement - an action which is reasoned necessary toward effective implementation of KISIP. This is undertaken with the overall intent of minimising and reversing negative effects of the losses and disruptions brought upon these people. Toward development of this RAP report, a census survey of Project Affected Persons (PAPs) was undertaken. Reference was in addition made on The Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) for KISIP, as well as other reports on the settlement the consultant has completed and handed over to KISIP as per ToR, namely: Inception Report; Conceptual Design Report; Detailed Design Report; Draft ESIA Report; and, Draft Socio-Economic Report. Also considered were the requirements of: a) The laws of Kenya with regard to land tenure, development, usage, and compulsory acquisition; and, b) World Bank Operational Policy (OP) 4.12 on compensation. March 2014 vii CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement 2. NATURE OF DISRUPTIONS AND LOSSES LIKELY TOWARD EFFECTIVE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROJECT, AND PROPOSED MITIGATION MEASURES From the census survey carried out on the Settlement between 19th and 31st October 2013, the number of PAPs was estimated at 640. Of these enumerated PAPs, majority were observed as informal businesses. Observed as well, an estimated 5.2% (count: 33 of 640) of the PAPs claimed to have legal rights to the land they occupy or use, of which majority (count: 31 of 33) were determined as service providers. Respecting assets, findings of the survey indicate that which are expected to be affected, and in decreasing order of incidence, are: kiosk (or Kibanda), veranda, flood lights, fence, water tank, septic tank, sewer pipelines, toilet, church, bridge, and fruits trees. Other is electricity poles. Majority (≈ 97.37%) of the assets were observed to be of temporary construction material. Findings of the survey also indicate there is potential impact of adverse disruption of movement of pedestrians and vehicles to and from households, businesses, and neighbouring areas within and outside the settlement. This was of particular concern to: a) business owners, whose worry was loss of or reduced revenues as well as loss of clientele; and, b) persons confined to wheel chairs and those using clutches, whose worry was movement through the construction zone. Other disruptions observed, which are likely on implementation of the Project, were interruption to electricity supply and, water and sanitation services. In connection to water and sanitation services, the disruption would be as a result of damage to verandas, manholes, water distribution lines, drainages, water tanks, septic tanks, sewer pipelines, and toilets. Damage to these water and sanitation structures, without provision of adequate mitigation measures, was further observed may result to impacts with adverse potential effects on the health and safety of PAPs, as well as residents from the beneficiary community. Toward effective implementation of the Project, also as observed from the survey, was likely: a) disruptions to family and community values due persons from outside migrating into the beneficiary community in response to income opportunity; and, b) damage to property located adjacent to construction sites as a result of construction activities. Against each of the observations made from the census survey, this RAP Report proposes most feasible mitigation measure, which is guided by recommendations from PAPs, RPF, and other stakeholders. Compliance with the laws of Kenya, as well as World Bank Policy on involuntary resettlement was also taken into consideration. The table below “This RAP Report’s Proposal of How Project Affected Person Is to be Compensated/Mitigated� gives a summary of the proposed mitigation measure against an observed disruption. 3. OTHER This RAP Report, in addition, proposes the activities to be undertaken toward adequately re- installing PAPs. Proposed as well are: a) the grievance redress mechanism; b) organisational responsibilities; c) implementation schedule, giving the timelines against the activities; d) monitoring and evaluation framework of the activities proposed be undertaken toward adequately re-installing PAPs; e) valuation and compensation process; and, d) the RAP budget, which is estimated at Ksh. 20,736,040.

The RAP report is in part fulfilment of a consultancy service under the Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project (KISIP), to undertake socio-economic surveys, infrastructure upgrading plans, and detailed engineering designs in Kariobangi Informal Settlement; and, the lead implementing agency is the Ministry of Land, Housing, and Urban Development. KISIP is funded by the Government of Kenya (GoK), together with the World Bank (WB), the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA), and the French Development Agency (AFD). Through KISIP, the infrastructure upgrading plans proposed for Kariobangi Informal Settlements, and for which the detailed designs are complete, is with respect to roads, storm water drainage, street and security lighting, solid and liquid waste management, and water supply. The detailed designs developed largely make use of land use planning done on the Settlement, which provides for roads and way leaves. These roads and way leaves have been encroached on - there are structures constructed on them, and in some instances, structures are absent, but there are persons utilising sections of the public spaces to generate income. Anticipated on implementation of the infrastructure upgrading plans proposed for the Informal Settlement is losses and disruption in connection to displacement from the public land identified for use by the Project. Anticipated as well are losses and disruption in connection to displacement from part parcels of land that persons claim to have legal rights to occupy and use. In line with the WB Policy on Resettlement concerning projects funded by the Bank, and as stated by KISIP’s Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF), persons with i) no recognisable legal rights or claim to the land they are occupying, using or getting their livelihood from, and ii) they occupied this land earmarked for project activities prior to the cut-off date, are determined under the Project as eligible for resettlement assistance in lieu of compensation. Persons under this class include encroachers and illegal or bona fide occupants. Additionally, persons with i) formal or no formal legal rights to the land they are occupying, using or getting their livelihood from, and ii) they occupied this land earmarked for project activities prior to the cut-off date, are determined under the Project as eligible for compensation, resettlement and rehabilitation assistance. In respect, this RAP Report documents the encroachers and non-encroachers from Kariobangi Informal Settlement that would be affected towards effective implementation of KISIP, as well as the losses and disruptions these persons would suffer. The Report additionally proposes mitigation measures to minimise on the impact of the losses and disruptions that would be experienced. The proposed mitigation measures are informed by consultations held with the affected persons, as well as the guidelines provided by the Project’s RPF. The overall objective of this RAP report is thus to present an entitlement resettlement assistance package that is aimed at adequately re-installing the Project Affected Persons (PAPs) from Kariobangi Informal Settlement that would be affected on implementation of KISIP in the Settlement - an action which is reasoned necessary toward effective implementation of KISIP. This is undertaken with the overall intent of minimising and reversing negative effects of the losses and disruptions brought upon these people. March 2014 1 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 Kenya Vision 2030 Kenya Vision 2030 is Kenya’s long-term development blueprint. It documents by sector, challenges that need addressing to transform Kenya into a middle income country by the year 2030. On housing and urbanisation, it documents six challenges that need addressing toward “providing the country’s population with adequate and decent housing in a suitable environment� by 2030. These challenges are: 1) inadequate capacity for urban and regional planning; 2) insufficient serviced land; 3) concentration of property development in the high income category; 4) legal and administrative reforms; 5) supply of affordable finance for mortgages and property development; and, 6) lack of adequate construction capacity. Of particular interest to this report is the challenge “insufficient serviced land�. Against this challenge, a specific goal of the country by Kenya Vision 2030 is to “improve livelihoods of 200,000 slum dwellers under Kenya Slum Upgrading Programme (KENSUP); and, service 10,000 plots through Public Private Partnerships (PPPs)�. This is to be achieved through a Flagship Project, “Install physical and social infrastructure in slums in 20 urban areas to formalise slums, permit construction of permanent houses, and attract private investment�9. 2.1.1 Municipal Council of Machakos From the August 2009 census results, Kenya had 215 urban centres. One of these centres, and which is related to this report, is Machakos Municipality. As Figure 1 illustrates, the Municipal Council of Machakos is located southeast of the capital city of Kenya, i.e. Nairobi; and, it covers an estimated 519 Km2, most of which is rural. Approximately 12 Km2 of the Municipality is urbanised10. The Municipal Council of Machakos is home to Machakos Town. This Town is located approximately 64 Km from Nairobi; and, its history dates back to 1889 when Imperial British East Africa Company (IBEA), the predecessor of the British Colonial Authority in Kenya, established its first upcountry capital and centre of operation in the Town11. Evident of Machakos Town is a Central Business District (CBD) and peri-urban commercial centres. The peri-urban commercial centres are: Mutituni, Kimutwa, Kaseve, Kithaayoni, Katoloni, Miwani and, Kenya Israel. Machakos Municipality is not home to many industries, a major discouraging factor being water shortage. However, it has a sizeable informal economy. Regarding its commercial and non-commercial activities, these are concentrated in the CBD of Machakos Town. As Figure 1 illustrates, Machakos Municipality is one of 15 independent local authorities that constitute the Nairobi Metropolitan Region (NMR). The NMR boundary covers 15 independent local authorities found within a radius of 40 kilometres of Nairobi City. The CBD of Machakos Municipality is in Machakos Town Constituency, Machakos County. Machakos County is located in Eastern Region of Kenya, and it has eight constituencies. 9 Government of the Republic of Kenya. 2007. Vision 2030: A Globally Competitive and Prosperous Kenya.

For example, as Table 1 illustrates, in 1962 it had an estimated urban population of 747,651 individuals, comprising about 8.66% of the total population of Kenya. By the August 1999 national census results, this population had grown to an estimated 5,360,917 individuals, covering about 18.70% of the total population of Kenya. Between August 1999 and August 2009 national census results, it grew by approximately 255.96%, to an estimated 13,722,069 (males: 6,882,620; and, females: 6,839,449) individuals, to constitute about 35.54% of the total population of Kenya.

Nairobi is the Capital City of Kenya. b) Urbanisation in Machakos Municipality Of the 215 urban centres of Kenya recorded during the August 2009 national census, Machakos Municipality is documented by the census results as one of the most populous urban centres in Kenya, ranking number thirteenth (as Table 5 shows). Its population by the August 2009 census results was estimated at 150,041 individuals (core urban population: 53,846; and, peri-urban population: 108,124). Tables 3 and 4 illustrate the urban population trend in Machakos Municipality, dating from 1979. Observable, the Municipality’s urban population has grown over the years. As indicated by the inter-census growth rates given under Table 3, the rate of growth of the urban population of Machakos Municipality has declined between the 1979 and 2009 census. However, despite the decline, the rate of growth of the urban population of the Municipality has been high, registering at three digit figures. Between the 1979 and 1989 census, the inter- census growth rate was estimated at 137.2%; and, between the 1989 and 1999 census, it was about 123.20%. Respecting between the 1999 and 2009 census, this rate was approximately 104.72%. This growth in urban population of Machakos Municipality, as is with the rest of Kenya, has taken place against poor urban planning.

It also estimates that, amongst the 47 Counties of Kenya, Machakos County is neither amongst the top ten, nor bottom ten counties when ranked by poverty indicators. Poverty in this report is measured using estimated consumption expenditures. The poverty line threshold measurement it uses, i.e. the poverty line below which people are deemed poor, is based on the monetary poverty line used by the Integrated Household Budget Survey 2005/06. This poverty line is determined and based on the expenditure required to purchase a food basket that allows minimum nutritional requirements to be met (set at 2,250 calories per adult equivalent per day) in addition to the costs of meeting basic non-food needs such as education, health, transportation and rent (KNBS, 2008). The 2008 Constituency Report on Well-Being in Kenya estimated this poverty line to be about Ksh. 2,331 for rural areas and Ksh. 6,673 for urban areas17. The National Report Exploring Kenya’s Inequality: Pulling Apart or Pooling Together (2013) basis its analysis on the 2009 Kenya housing and population census. 2.1.4 Proliferation of Informal Settlements in Kenya As the foregoing discussion illustrates, Kenya has urbanised rapidly, and so has Machakos Municipality. This however has been against poor urban planning, which has resulted in the proliferation of informal settlements. These informal settlements are generally of two types: squatter settlement, and illegal sub-division of either government or private land. Characteristic of these settlements is: (a) they are located in proximity to areas with employment opportunities; (b) they are located on insufficiently serviced land – land wanting on infrastructure such as roads, water, electricity, and sanitation; (c) they are overcrowded; (d) poor housing; (e) they have insecure land tenure status; (f) a number are 16 Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS); and, Society for International Development – East Africa (SID). 2013.

These residents are mainly occupied in low skilled occupations either as employed or self-employed. The employed are either in casual or permanent labour: in occupations such as security guards, domestic servants, construction workers, factory production and office support workers. The self-employed residents are of two types: those engaging in non-farm activities and those in farming. Their Mathare 4B Informal Settlement: It is on public (Government of Kenya) land level of operation is largely micro in scale, and oriented to serving the resident community. The non-farm activities are more on retailing of goods and services. The farming activities are undertaken by few residents, and include activities such as pig, cow, chicken, rabbit and some vegetable farming18. Also characteristic of the informal settlements in Kenya is discrimination, particularly along ethnic lines. The result is that most ethnic groups in these settlements live in (sub) communities of their own ethnic background19. In Nairobi County, to which Machakos County is adjacent to the southeast, the 2009 census results estimated it had over 200 informal settlements scattered across it. Collectively these settlements were resident to approximately 44% of the City’s population; and, they occupy about 2% of the City’s land. The challenges of inadequate housing in Nairobi County are spilling over into Machakos County as the Nairobi Metropolis takes shape. The situation is expected to deteriorate in the absence of proper planning, especially with the implementation of Konza Techno City. Konza Techno City is a Kenya Vision 2030 flagship project, aimed at fostering the growth of the technology industry in Kenya. This City will be located on 5000 acres of land about 60 Km southeast of Nairobi; and it is being marketed by the Government of Kenya, through the ICT Board as the “African Silicon Savannah�. The first phase of Konza Techno City is expected to create over 20,000 direct and indirect jobs. Implementation of Konza Techno City shall definitely scale up the demand for adequate housing in and around Machakos County20. 2.2 Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project Towards improving the livelihoods of households in informal settlements of Kenya, the Government of Kenya is implementing a number of projects. One of these projects, and which is related to this report, is the Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project (KISIP), under the Kenya Slum Upgrading Programme (KENSUP). KISIP’s overall objective 18 Government of the Republic of Kenya. 2007. Vision 2030: A Globally Competitive and Prosperous Kenya.

The selected Kenyan municipalities, which are 15, are: Embu, Eldoret, Garissa, Kakamega, Kisumu, Kitui, Kericho, Machakos, Malindi, Mombasa, Nairobi, Naivasha, Nakuru, Nyeri, and Thika21. The overall objective of KISIP is to be achieved through priority interventions in the following areas22: a) Institutional strengthening; b) Improving security of land tenure and investing in infrastructure in informal settlements based on plans developed in consultation with communities; and, c) Support to proactive planning to better anticipate population growth and help develop options to dampen formation of new slums. Vis-à-vis, KISIP is designed with four components: Component 1: Strengthening Institutions and Project Management - which is designed to support institutional strengthening and capacity building of the Ministry of Land, Housing and Urban Development, and the participating municipalities. It is also designed to finance the management activities associated with Project implementation and establishment of a monitoring and evaluation system. Component 2: Enhancing Tenure Security – which is designed to support systematisation and scaling-up of on-going efforts to strengthen settlement planning and tenure security in urban informal settlements. Component 3: Investing in Infrastructure and Service Delivery - which is designed to support investment in settlement infrastructure and, where necessary, extension of trunk infrastructure to settlements. Component 4: Planning for Urban Growth – which is designed to support planning and development of options that facilitate the delivery of infrastructure services, land, and housing for future population growth. A core design feature of KISIP is that proposed interventions are community targeted, and at a scale that allows for local operation and maintenance. Of the four components of KISIP, that which is related to this report is Component 3. KISIP is funded by the Government of Kenya (GoK), together with the World Bank (WB), the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA), and the French Development Agency (AFD). 2.2.1 Informal Settlements in Machakos Identified to Benefit from KISIP As discussed above, KISIP is targeting specific municipalities. In these municipalities, it is also targeting specific informal settlements. Machakos is one of fifteen (15) municipalities to 21 Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project. 2012.

This report is in fulfilment of the consultancy task under Phase 2 and its related output: preparing a RAP in accordance with the Environment and Social Management Framework (ESMF) and the Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) of the Project. It is a RAP report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement. Other documents this RAP has made reference to, which are outputs of the consultancy for the selected informal settlement and had been completed and handed over to KISIP by July 2013, are: Inception Report; Conceptual Design Report; Detailed Design Report; Draft ESIA Report; and, Draft Socio-Economic Report. The sections that follow are focused on the Resettlement Action Plan for Kariobangi Informal Settlement. March 2014 11 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement 3.0 OBJECTIVE OF THE RESETTLEMENT ACTION PLAN KISIP is a development project. It involves improvement in infrastructure as described in Section 2.2. above. As a development project, its implementation may disrupt previous production systems and way of life of affected persons. In connection, KISIP has an obligation to the affected persons (henceforth referred to as Project Affected Persons, abbreviated PAPs), to observe fair practice in awarding compensation. This is the backbone of this RAP report. Thus, the overall objective of this RAP report is to present an entitlement compensation package, put together and, consisting of a set of provisions to be funded by KISIP, with an aim at adequately re-installing PAPs in Kariobangi Informal Settlement. This is undertaken with the overall intent of minimising and/or reversing negative effects of compulsory acquisition of assets as well as displacement. The specific objectives of this RAP Report are: 1) To present the different types of assets and their count, which are observed would be affected toward effective implementation of KISIP in the beneficiary settlement; 2) To present the different categories of PAPs and their count, that are observed would require re-installation which is as a direct result of implementing KISIP in the beneficiary settlement; 3) To present the potential disruptions to PAPs, which are observed would be necessary toward effective implementation of the Project; 4) To present the feasible mitigation measures that are observed would adequately re- install the identified PAPs, taking into consideration compliance to the WB policy and the legal framework of Kenya on involuntary resettlement as a result of development Projects; 5) To present an entitlement compensation package, and other provisions, to be funded by KISIP, with an overall aim of cost effectively and adequately re-installing the identified PAPs. In the preparation of this RAP report, considered were the requirements of: a) The laws of Kenya with regard to land tenure, development, usage, and compulsory acquisition; b) World Bank Operational Policy (OP) 4.12 on compensation; and, c) KISIP’s RPF. March 2014 12 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement 4.0 LEGAL FRAMEWORK THAT GUIDED THE DEVELOPMENT OF THIS RESETTLEMENT ACTION PLAN 4.1 Background This section gives a short description of the legal framework of Kenya governing the developments proposed under KISIP. Discussed in brief also is the WB OP 4.12. The section thereafter concludes with a comparison between the regarded legal framework of Kenya and WB OP 4.12, to identify the gaps and state how the gaps shall be resolved during implementation of the RAP. The significance of reviewing the different frameworks during preparation of this RAP Report was in ensuring the Report is compliant with the requirements of both the GoK and the development partner in connection to displacement and relocation due to development project. 4.2 Interests on Land in Kenya: An Overview Interests on land in Kenya broadly fall into two groups, namely: Rights that are held through Rights that are maintained through laws enacted by the traditional African System national parliament a) Generally known as customary a) Generally known as statutory tenure. tenure b) Refers to: b) Refers to: Land ownership practices by Freehold tenure, which confers the greatest interest in certain communities.

The conditions are expressed through national law; and, they broadly fall into three groups, namely: a) Public Trust Doctrine: Where common property resources such as rivers, forests and parks are held by the state in trust for the general public. Consequently, the state cannot alienate these resources or use them in a way detrimental to public interest. This is the doctrine that would ensure that public land cannot be alienated or committed to waste to the detriment of public interest. b) Police Powers: The statutory framework for land ownership in Kenya is heavily influenced by common law jurisprudence on land ownership – the owner’s rights include the rights of use and abuse. In Kenya, however, the development of physical planning legislation has vested in the state the cumulative rights over other land owners. This regulatory power is referred to as police power. c) Eminent Domain: Where the government is the ultimate owner of all property. The government can acquire property for the public good. Compulsory acquisition has been used for eminent domain. 4.3 The Laws of Kenya Reviewed toward Ensuring this RAP Report is Compliant with the Legal Framework of Kenya KISIP is a development project, and its implementation will cause direct losses and disruptions to persons referred to as PAPs.

According to the Policy, particular attention should be given to the needs of vulnerable groups, especially those below the poverty line, the landless, the elderly, women and children, indigenous groups, ethnic minorities, and other disadvantage persons. March 2014 16 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement The Bank’s Policy requires that the provision of compensation and other assistance to PAPs is carried out prior to the displacement of people. In particular, repossession of land for project activities may take place only after compensation has been paid. Resettlement sites, new homes and related infrastructure, public services and moving allowances must be provided to the affected persons in accordance with the provisions of the Bank’s Policy. 4.4.1 Kenyan Law Vis-à-Vis World Bank Operational Policy 4.12 Table 7 summarises the comparison between Kenyan law and the WB OP 4.12 as regards compensation. The main difference between the two is that the Kenyan system recognises only title holders as bona fide property owners; while under the WB OP 4.12, lack of a legal title does not bar in extending assistance and support to those affected by development projects. With respect, the measure this Project will take to resolve this gap, and is reflected in the relevant sections, is the WB OP 4.12 shall prevail.

March 2014 17 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement 5.0 KARIOBANGI INFORMAL SETTLEMENT 5.1 Introduction Kariobangi Informal Settlement is situated in Township Sub-Location, Machakos Central Location of Machakos Town Constituency in Machakos County. The Settlement is on Trust Land. Between 1978 and the 1990’s, parcels of land of this Trust Land were politically allocated to the now plot owners. This was completed without bestowing legal ownership and proper planning. Today, all the plot owners are registered with the Machakos County Government and have been issued with Temporary Occupational License (TOL). These owners pay yearly land rates to the County Government, and non-payment of the rates results to repossession. In addition, plot owners planning to develop their plots are required to present their building plans to the County Government for approval. Majority of the plots in Kariobangi Informal Settlements measure 32 feet by 70 feet. Others are 40 feet by 60 feet. Formalisation of the Settlement has commenced. Each allocated parcel of land and assets thereon has been officially picked as it is on the ground, and the information passed on to the District Physical Planning Department for approval.

The overall objective of the census survey was to identify and assess the potential adverse economic and social impacts that would be as a result of involuntary taking of land and assets thereon, and involuntary restriction of access to protected areas, which is toward effective implementation of the Project; as well as, facilitate identification of most feasible mitigation measures of the adverse impacts observed. Findings of the survey were to be used to prepare an acceptable RAP Report of the Project. The specific objectives of the census study were: 1. To raise awareness of the Project and its consequences, particularly to persons directly affected; 2. To identify, quantify and document the different types of assets that will be affected toward effective implementation of the Project; 3. To identify, quantify and document the different categories of PAPs that will require re- installation; 4. To document the potential disruptions on production systems and ways of life of each identified PAP, and which will be as a result of implementing the Project; 5. To establish and document the potential disruptions that will be due to restriction of access to protected areas, and which will be as a result of implementing the Project; 6. To engage the different categories of PAPs on mitigation matters, (to obtain their opinion, suggestions and consent), an action that is considered necessary toward effective implementation of the Project; and, 7. To develop a RAP Report of the Project that: a) presents an entitlement compensation package, with an overall aim of cost effectively and adequately re-installing the identified PAPs; and, b) is compliant with GoK legal framework governing the industry and involuntary resettlement due to development Projects, as well as the WB OP on involuntary resettlement as a result of implementing a development project. An interview guide was prepared for this purpose. Annex 8.1 gives the interview guide used. Prior to proceeding with the report from this point, three details need mention: a) October 27th 2013 represents the cut-off date. b) On 3rd March 2014, a final community meeting was held in which the draft RAP report was extensively discussed to ensure ownership. c) Should a large amount of time lapse between the cut-off date and implementation of engineering works of the Project, it is likely that at the time to implement the engineering works of the Project: i.) New development may have taken place on the way leaves identified to locate the sewer lines. Knowledge of the public nature of the land selected for infrastructure development has in the past not deterred residents from utilising the land, and this behaviour is not March 2014 22 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement expected to change immediately, even with threats that utilising the land is at one’s own peril. ii.) A PAP identified under the study may have relocated outside the Project area, and his/her place taken over by another PAP. iii.) A PAP identified under the study may have been evicted from the encroached land s/he occupied and utilised, and has moved to an area outside the Project Area. Respecting concern given under paragraph b (ii) and (iii), this report recommends verification of PAPs be a continuous process, be made a part of implementation of the engineering works of the Project. Overall, this report, in its subsequent sections, proposes mitigation measures that could be adopted. Notwithstanding the details, the facts obtained provide adequate guide to development of this report. 7.2 Potential Impacts of the Project 7.2.1 Evaluation of the Impacts of the Project To make possible evaluation of the impacts of KISIP support on Kariobangi Informal Settlement, the guidelines provided by the Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) for KISIP was made use of. Generally, the design for infrastructure improvement in Kariobangi Informal Settlement envisages the following disruptions and losses. Proposed against each anticipated disruption and loss is its mitigation measure(s). a) Number of Project Affected Persons The study conducted in Kariobangi Informal Figure 9: Charcoal Sellers that Claim to be Settlements estimated the number of PAPs to "Business Tenants� of Municipal Council of be 640. About two-thirds of these claimed to Machakos be business tenants. Of these business tenants, it was established 99.05% were encroachers. According to the group of “business tenants that are encroachers�, their “landlord� is the Municipal Council of Machakos. They make payment to the Council either daily or weekly to secure license to operate within the Municipality. Table 8 gives an indication of the amounts they pay. This report identifies these PAPs as street traders. Few PAPS, as Figure 10 illustrates, were observed as residential tenants. And three services providers were among the PAPs categorised as a property owner. These service providers were: Kenya Power and Lighting Company Ltd., Machakos Municipal Council, and Machakos Water and Sewerage Company. Collectively, these were counted 31 times as follows: Kenya Power and Lighting Company: Total Count 5 Machakos Municipal Council: Total Count 16 Machakos Water and Sewerage Company: Total Count 10 An estimated 5.2% (count: 33) of the PAPs were observed to be located on land they claim to have legal rights to occupy and/or use.

Towards effective implementation of the Project, the project design proposes, to the extent possible, utilisation of public land (to improve on the roads, storm water drainage, street and security lighting, and solid and liquid waste management). In specific it proposes, to the extent possible, utilisation of existing roads, access road reserves and public passageways. From the survey there is land the Project design proposes it be utilised towards effective implementation of the Project, and PAPs claim to have legal rights to occupy. The estimated number of PAPs established to fall under this group is 33, and majority (count: 31) of these are service providers. March 2014 24 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement The mitigation measures proposed that be taken for the non-service providers are: 1) For legal owner: a) Two months advance notice, b) cash compensation for lost land at replacement cost, c) additional 15% ex-gratia for compulsory acquisition; and, 2) Where tenants/lease holders are affected: a) Two month advance notice, and b) transitional allowance equivalent to three (3) months rental allowance. c) Loss of Structures and Proposed Mitigation Measures There are assets on the existing routes identified to implement the proposed infrastructure facilities in Kariobangi Informal Settlement. The description of these assets is as presented in Tables 9 to 12. A large share of affected assets is kiosks (or Kibanda): slightly over 90% of the cases counted. Observed as well, a large share of the affected structures (97.37%) are temporary. For example, it was established over three quarters of the kiosks (or kibanda) operated in the open air, and whatever structure they may have can easily be moved (relocated).

These are significant in number. The types of businesses practiced within these structures for commercial use are as presented in Table 13. Observable, the bulk of business type is in selling of vegetables and/or fruits. Documented from the field survey, as Tables 11 and 14 to 16 illustrate, all the affected businesses are micro-enterprises: i.) Nine-nine Percent (99.00%) are not registered, i.e. they have not regularised their operations beyond the licensing requirements of the Municipal Council of Machakos; ii.) Majority operate from temporary structures; iii.) Nearly two-thirds operate from an area averaging 4.95m2 in size; iv.) The number of employees per business range from one (1) to eight (8), majority of the business (≈ 67.9%) having only one employee; and, v.) An estimated 65.2% of the businesses, according to the owners, earn a profit of not more than Ksh. 1000 per day. On the mitigation measures the Project could take with respect to the affected businesses, please refer to Table 17 (Table 17: This RAP Report’s Proposal of How Project Affected Person Is to be Compensated/Mitigated). The proposals are shaped by a combination of the guidelines provided by the Project’s RPF, and suggestions from the PAPs.

Established from the field survey Figure 13: Examples of Structures on the Land conducted, on implementation of the Targeted to Implement Proposed Infrastructure proposed infrastructure design for the in Kariobangi Informal Settlement Settlement, three (3) structures for housing would be partly affected; but the residual parts of the structures would be viable. With respect, the proposed mitigation measures the Project could take are as provided in Table 18 below. Table 18: Proposed Mitigation Measures Project Could Take Regarding Partial Loss of Structure, and Residual is Viable Proposed mitigation Category of owner Legal user with valid Owner without title ownership Squatter Two months advance notice Cash compensation at replacement cost for affected portion calculated on MOW rate without depreciation; Ex-gratia @15% of compensation amount towards compulsory acquisition Repair costs equivalent to 25% of the compensation Right to salvage material Note: Proposed mitigation for type of owner of affected structure March 2014 32 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement f) Disruptions to Vehicle Movement and Pedestrian Access through the Settlement When Work Is Underway, and Proposed Mitigation Measures. Observed from the field survey, resettlement to new areas outside the beneficiary Settlement is unlikely. Subsequently, the potential impact of disruption of movement (i.e. access) of vehicles and pedestrians to and from premises and adjoining areas of land, both within and outside the beneficiary Settlement, is examined under this RAP Report within the boundaries of the beneficiary Settlement. The disruption is expected during construction period, and it is anticipated to be upsetting as well as potentially dangerous. It is potentially dangerous particularly in the event of an emergency, and emergency vehicles (e.g. ambulances, fire trucks and police cars) are unable to access the site of emergency. It is potentially upsetting, a particular concern raised with respect to impact to: i.) Businesses, where business owners’ worries were observed as: a) loss of or reduced revenue; and, b) loss of clientele; and, ii.) Physically disabled persons, in particular those using wheel chairs and clutches, whose worries were movement through the construction site. Respecting, the mitigation measures this RAP report proposes is for the contractor to draw an engineering works schedule that provides for all works proposed for the Settlement to be staggered by short distances along a road, as well as be accomplished by specific geographical groups. That is, all upgrading plans proposed for the Settlement should be grouped, first by road, next by smaller distances along the road. Thereafter, engineering works along the length of the road should be sequenced by the smaller geographical grouping, and coordinated in such a way that: a) provided is movement of vehicles through the Settlement when work is underway, and maintained is pedestrian access through the construction zone; and, b) disruption to vehicle and pedestrian access through the Settlement is minimised to the extent possible. These mitigation measures proposed should be implemented alongside the environment and social management plan developed under the ESIA Report of the Project. g) Loss of Access to Natural Resources and Health Facilities , Water and Sanitation, and Energy, and Proposed Mitigation Measures From the infrastructure improvement design proposed for the beneficiary Settlement and to be implemented by the Project, the field survey conducted from the 19th to 31st October 2013 established that no household will be moved; and proposed as a mitigation measure, should it be found otherwise during engineering works phase of the Project, highly recommended is re-installation within the Informal Settlement, which is synonymous to the Project beneficiary Settlement. In the Project beneficiary area, established from the field survey carried out in October 2013: 1) Loss of access to natural resources, and health facilities are not anticipated. The land on which the proposed infrastructure improvements will be carried out is largely public land reserved for roads and way leaves. On this land: no health facility was observed to be constructed on it; no part of the land was observed to be a protected area that takes the complete ban on the exercise of private rights; and, no part of the land was observed to have a predominant land use comparable to a park. The predominant land use of the informal settlement is residential. 2) Temporary disruption to electricity supply to the Settlement is anticipated. On the roads targeted for improvement under the Project, as Table 10 illustrates, are electricity poles with electricity lines supplying electricity to households in the Informal March 2014 33 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement Settlement. Towards effective implementation of the Project, the electricity poles have to be Figure 15: Two of Electricity Poles on One of shifted (relocated). This will necessitate the Roads Targeted for Improvement in disconnection of power supply to the Kariobangi Informal Settlement Settlement, thus interrupting electricity supply to the Settlement. The situation is expected to be temporary. In connection, this RAP report finds it necessary to propose mitigation measures. Vis-à-vis, the Project shall: a) Work in close collaboration with Figure 14: Example of a Power Interruption Notice Circulated in a Daily Newspaper with Wide Circulation the network service provider in Kenya responsible for electrical energy transmission, distribution and retailing throughout the Settlement b) Ensure that sufficient notice of power disruption to the Settlement is given, as per the laws and regulations of Kenya governing the industry. c) Ensure that disconnection of power supply to the Settlement, and which is as a result of Project activities, should take place during the day only, and preferably on a day that will have the lowest impact on businesses, such as a Sunday. By nightfall, power supply should be restored. d) Ensure the total number of hours of power interruption should be as small as possible. This is critical, in particular not to deteriorate security in the Settlement. 3) Temporary interruption with respect to water and sewerage services in the Informal Settlement is expected. On the road reserves targeted for use by the Project, as Tables 10 to 12 illustrate, are: manholes, sewer pipelines, and water distribution lines. These will be affected during construction. To minimise on the magnitude of disruptions, the mitigation measures proposed by this Report are: a) Undertaking of group jobs as described under “f� (Disruptions to Vehicle Movement and Pedestrian Access through the Settlement When Work is Underway, and Proposed Mitigation Measures). b) Regarding disruption on water supply: During construction, the Project shall ensure households whose individual or yard tap water connection is affected shall be supplied with March 2014 34 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement water. Three probable ways of ensuring water supply to these affected households are, through use of: a) water tanker(s); or, b) temporary service pipes called “high-lines�; or c) both as is appropriate. High-lines are temporary service pipes installed above ground and attached by a rubber hose to the affected households or plots water meter. Should the option of high-lines be taken, their installation shall be undertaken in close collaboration with the water and sewerage company responsible for water and sewerage services within the local authority. As the high-lines are placed above ground, the Project shall create awareness to the community to exercise caution around them. For added safety, the Project shall reinforce protection of the high-lines where they pass driveways and high traffic areas. When the high-lines break or leak, the Project shall immediately repair them to prevent contamination. Removal of the high-lines shall only be on completion of construction of the formal water pipeline infrastructure, and after this infrastructure has been tested and approved, and individual connections to households has been effected as proposed in the Project’s infrastructure improvement initiatives for the Settlement. The strategy of using and removing of high-lines can be staggered by group jobs so as to minimise on adverse potential impacts. c) Regarding interruptions to sewerage services through damage of manholes and sewer pipelines, the options the Project could apply are: i. If possible, not damage the existing system; ii. If it is not possible to undertake works without damage, consider putting in place a temporary diversion system which discharges to the main sewer line; iii. Alternatively, provide temporary toilet facilities; and, iv. On completion of construction of the formal sewer infrastructure in the Settlement, and after this infrastructure has been tested and approved, effect individual connections to all households in the Settlement as proposed in the Project’s infrastructure improvement initiatives for the Settlement. h) Increase of Morbidity, and Proposed Mitigation Measures Observed from the field survey, resettlement to new areas outside the beneficiary Settlement is unlikely; and, should it be likely for re-installation of population, highly recommended under this RAP Report is that it takes place within the Informal Settlement which is synonymous to the beneficiary Settlement. Subsequently, the potential impact of increase in morbidity as a result of implementation of the Project is expected to be within the boundaries of the beneficiary Settlement. In the Project beneficiary Settlement, during the engineering works phase, expected are negative impacts with potential undesirable effects on the health and safety of residents from the beneficiary community. As noted from the foregoing discussion, there are structures that will be damaged toward effective implementation of the Project. Of particular interest to this section are verandas, manholes, water distribution lines, drainages, water tanks, septic tanks, sewer pipelines, and toilets. Damage to these structures without providing adequate mitigation measures will result to impacts with adverse potential effects on the health and safety of PAPs as well as residents from the beneficiary community. In connection, for the mitigation measures to follow to alleviate the adverse potential impact of increase of morbidity, refer to the relevant sections above, which discuss them in-depth. March 2014 35 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement Additional effects of Project activities on the health and safety of PAPs as well as beneficiary community, and the proposed mitigation measures, are addressed by the Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP) developed for the Settlement through the ESIA Study. This plan covers these in details. Thus, implementation of the mitigation measures proposed in this RAP report toward alleviating the adverse potential impacts of increase in morbidity as a result of Project activities, should be undertaken alongside those proposed under the ESMP developed for the Settlement through the ESIA Study. This is critical in ensuring the investments that will be undertaken are socially, environmentally and economically acceptable. i) Disruption of Family and Community Values, and Proposed Mitigation Measures A probable outcome of the Project is temporary increase in the population of the Settlement as a result of persons from outside the beneficiary community migrating into the Project area in response to income opportunities. The population from outside may disrupt established community values with possible undesirable effects. A most viable mitigation measure is for the project to get its manual labour, to the extent possible, from the beneficiary community. j) Damage To Property Located Outside the Land Identified for Infrastructure Improvement During Construction, and Proposed Mitigation Measures During construction, should activities of the Project result to damage of property located outside the land identified for infrastructure improvement, the Property Owner shall contact the Project through the Informal Settlement’s grievance redress mechanism (which is discussed further under section 7.8: Grievance Procedure) to provide information and initiate the claims process. The contractor shall be obliged to make the repairs needed prior to exiting from the job. Timing of the repairs may be determined by the Project Engineer, on behalf of the Project. 7.2.2 Potential Impacts of New Re-Installation Site As discussed above, the Project’s design is deliberately conceived toward largely utilising existing roads, road reserves and public passageways, (and minimising on compulsory acquisition of land). Noted also from the foregoing discussion: 1) There are structures on the identified road reserves and passageways. 2) Some of the structures are structures for housing and commercial use. 3) As the mitigation measures recommended illustrate, highly discouraged is new re- installation particularly of households, and in particularly to sites outside the Settlement. For these reasons, potential impacts of new re-installation site are expected to be none, or if present, may be low. Where re-installation is eminent, highly recommended under this RAP Report is re-installation of affected populations within their pre-project settlements. This strategy is bound to significantly minimise on the potential impacts associated with new re- installation sites as discussed under Table 19. March 2014 36 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement Table 19: Summary of the Evaluation of the Impacts of KISIP on Kariobangi Informal Settlement Element Yes No Result Mitigation and Attenuation Does the Project entail: 1) The loss of land?

March 2014 43 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement 7.3 Eligibility Eligibility in this report is used in the context of the person that is entitled to or qualifies for any of the following provisions: compensation, resettlement, and rehabilitation assistance. Under this report, a person is determined amongst those that have qualified for any of the identified provisions when s/he meets in full the following conditions: a) Part or whole parcels of his or her land is tagged for compulsorily acquisition for the effective implementation of the Project; b) S/he occupied this land earmarked for project activities, prior to the cut-off date. c) His or her rights or claim to the tagged land falls into any of the following categories: i. Formal legal rights to land as recognised by the national and customary Laws of Kenya. Persons considered here are those that hold leasehold land, freehold land and, land held within the family or passed on through generations. ii. No formal legal rights to the land or assets at the time the census begins, but has recognised claim of use of such land or ownership of assets through the national and customary Laws of Kenya. Persons taken into account here are those that come from outside the country and have been given land by the local dignitaries to settle, and or to occupy. iii. No recognisable legal rights or claim to the land s/he is occupying, using or getting his or her livelihood from. Persons allowed under this class include encroachers and illegal or bona fide occupants. An affected person who satisfies paragraph (a) and (b), and his or her land tenure complies with either sub-paragraph (i) or (ii), is determined under the Project as eligible for compensation, resettlement and rehabilitation assistance for the land, building or fixed assets on the land and building taken by KISIP. The compensation is in accordance to the conditions of KISIP’s RPF. An affected person who satisfies paragraph (a) and (b), and his or her land tenure complies with sub-paragraph (iii), is determined under the Project as eligible for resettlement assistance in lieu of compensation. In addition, s/he is allowed relocation assistance in accordance to the conditions of KISIP’s RPF. As Figure 6 illustrates, an estimated 94.82% of PAPs in Kariobangi Informal Settlement satisfy paragraph (a) and (b), and their land tenure complies with sub-paragraph (iii). Vis-à- vis, they are determined under the Project as eligible for resettlement assistance in lieu of compensation. In addition, they are allowed relocation assistance in accordance to the conditions of KISIP’s RPF. The rest of the PAPs satisfy paragraph (a) and (b), and their land tenure complies with (ii). Annex 8.2 gives the list of PAPs by eligibility. 7.4 Valuation and Compensation for Losses The foregoing discussion informs that assets will be compulsorily acquired toward effective implementation of the Project. The nature of losses anticipated due to this action of the Project include: a) “title rights or other rights to structures constructed on the existing roads, road reserves and public passageways�; and, b) “non-corporal elements of commercial funds�. The duty of the Project is to promptly make just compensation to the affected persons for the losses incurred. Respecting: March 2014 44 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement 1. For losses falling under “title rights or other rights to structures constructed�: The just compensation value is an amount not less than the market value of the asset as at the time of the cut-off date. If payment of this compensation value is not made at the time the just compensation value is fixed, the Project will open a special account into which it shall pay interest on the amount awarded at the prevailing bank rates from the time the just compensation value was fixed until the time of payment. Thus the total amount paid at the time of payment will include the additional amount due to interest, which accounts for inflation over the period. Assets in Kenya are valued on the principal of ‘market value’. Under the Action described in this report, market value will be understood to mean an amount equal to or greater than the replacement value (calculated without depreciation) of the affected asset as at the time of the Project compulsorily acquiring the asset. 2. For non-corporal commercial loss: The compensation value is not less than the value of real benefits declared to fiscal authorities over the last year prior to cut-off date. Following, on the just compensation value, the Project could budget on a figure as presented in Table 24, and disaggregated by PAP as presented in Annex 8.2 and the valuation report presented together with this report. The compensation value presented in this report is fixed through a combination of consultations with the affected persons as well as beneficiary community and the Project’s appointed licensed valuer’s expertise. 7.5 Resettlement Measures The Project will ensure total compensation of PAPs takes place prior to commencement of its engineering works phase. Respecting, the Project will constitute a Resettlement Implementation Committee (RIC) prior to compensation, and as part of the resettlement implementation process of the Project. This RIC will be directly charged with managing the resettlement process, with an overall objective of ensuring just re-installation of PAPs. The RIC will be based within the appropriate department of Machakos County Government, and the County Government will facilitate it to establish and maintain a Secretariat. This is in accordance to the guidance provided by the RPF of KISIP, that each beneficiary Municipality takes responsibility for local implementation of resettlement activities under KISIP. Specifically, the functions of the RIC may include, but not limited to: Ensuring all PAPs are duly registered; Protecting PAPs until adequately re-installed; Overseeing the efficient and effective management and use of the compensation fund provided under the Project; Incorporating an implementation schedule with popular backing, and which takes care of prejudices; Ensuring dissemination of accurate information on the Project to the public, and in particular on compensation matters; Monitoring and supervising resettlement activities under the Project; and, Preparing, as appropriate, reports relating to the fulfilment of its functions. This is significant for accounting purposes on the situation; March 2014 45 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement The proposed composition of the RIC is, but not limited to, as follows: Committee Member Role/Justification a) Representative(s) from the KISIP Team of Implementer of this resettlement instrument. the Local Municipality (Nairobi County) b) Representative(s) from the KISIP Team of Provide overall supervision.

No person shall be eligible to be a member of the Committee who does not fulfil the requirement of the integrity set out in Chapter Six of the Constitution of Kenya 2010; and, a member of the Committee may resign from office by notice in writing to the Committee. A member of the RIC may be removed from office, on recommendation of the RIC, if s/he is determined unable or unfit to discharge their functions. The RIC shall meet as often as is appropriate for the transaction of the business of the Committee. The quorum for the conduct of business of the Committee shall not be less than half the total number of members; and, a decision reached on any matter before the Committee shall be by a majority of votes of the members present and voting. On its constitution, the RIC may determine its own procedure and the procedure for any member of the Committee and for the attendance of other persons at its meeting. 7.6 Community Participation As discussed above, the Project’s design largely proposes utilisation of existing roads, road reserves, and public passageways so as to avoid displacement of populations. This was greatly achieved. However, should it be found during the engineering works phase of the Project the need to re-install households, the mitigation measures highly recommended by this RAP report are those oriented toward discouraging relocation of PAPs to new land areas outside the Project beneficiary areas. Community contributions that take place will therefore be limited to within the Project beneficiary areas. In connection, the Project will encourage community contributions on: a) Determination of genuine PAPs; b) Determination of an adequate compensation as per the Laws of Kenya and WB OP 4.12; c) Drafting, reading and signing of resettlement and compensation agreements; d) Payment of compensation; e) Resettlement activities; and, f) Implementation of post-project community support activities, if any. 7.7 Other: Site Selection, Preparation and Relocation; Housing Infrastructure and Services; Environmental Protection and Management; and, Integration with Host Population Observed from the field survey, resettlement to new areas outside the beneficiary Settlement is unlikely. The Project’s design largely proposes utilisation of existing roads, road reserves, and public passageways so as to avoid displacement of populations. This was greatly achieved. And if it is found that during engineering works phase of the project that it is necessary to re-install households, highly recommended, activities should be oriented on the strategy of re-installing PAPs within the Informal Settlement, thus avoiding disruptions March 2014 47 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement associated with relocation to new land areas outside the beneficiary Settlement. Observed from the survey, this is possible as the numbers that would come up would be small. Subsequently, the aspect of new site selection, preparation and relocation are unlikely under the proposed works of the Project. Other aspects that may not concern the Project, and which are associated with relocation to new land areas outside the beneficiary Settlement are: a) housing infrastructure and social services; b) environmental protection and management; and, c) integration with host population. 7.8 Grievance Procedures 7.8.1 Proposed Structure The Project recognises grievances are inevitable and can be of different levels. It therefore will encourage fearless expression of grievances; and, will not restrict redressing of the grievances. In redressing of the grievances, as was recommended from consultations with the community and KISIP county team (and which is consistent with the laws of Kenya), the Project will encourage use of the existing community structure established under KISIP, i.e. the SEC, as the first forum. This it will do so in an attempt to resolve the grievances in an amicable manner. If this fails, the SEC may refer it to the RIC as the second forum. If this fails, the Project, on the recommendation of the RIC, may refer the matter for arbitration. And, where all these avenues are exhausted without arrival of an amicable solution or consensual decision, the Project will not restrict recourse being had with the judicial institutions in place, namely the law courts, whose decision will be final and binding. In this regard, the County Government is obliged to provide, in particular to vulnerable and disadvantaged groups, the requisite assistance enabling them to present their case to such decision-making organs of government. 7.8.2 Proposed Average Timeline to Address Grievances During consultations with PAPs and the community, it was recommended that the period from the time a grievance is lodged with the SEC to when it is resolved by RIC should be two (2) weeks. This recommendation was largely influenced by the experience of SEC in so far handling KISIP related community concerns. 7.8.3 Reporting of Grievances a) A grievance can be made in writing (either through a letter or e-mail), by phone or in person. b) The grievance can be made on plain paper. c) The grievance shall contain the name, complete contact information of the PAP, and the facts on which the PAP intends to be addressed. d) The grievance shall be registered in a register of grievances to be kept by both SEC and RIC. e) The grievance shall be acknowledged with a unique reference number. Vis-à-vis, a grievance shall be numbered consecutively in each month according to the order of its institution: i.e. the day of the month it was received, and the grievance number (e.g. 12th March 2014, Grievance No. 1). f) The aggrieved PAP shall be issued with the acknowledgement of his/her grievance. g) A final decision reached on a grievance at a respective level shall be written, dated and signed by each member that was involved. Reasons for the decision shall be contained in the signed record.

If to arbitrator unable, the grievance is The court when all the above avenues are exhausted withouth arrival of an amicable solution or consensual decision. Decision of the court will be final and binding. 7.9 Organisational Responsibilities In connection to the Action Plan described here, the Project, through the County Government, bears the primary duty of: 1) Administrator. 2) Notifying structure owners and the general public through the mass media (radio, television, and daily newspapers) and local administration of its intention to displace persons for the effective implementation of the Project. Added, a copy of this notice shall be served to each PAP – owners, occupiers and agents. This notice shall state: a) The Project’s proposal to displace persons; b) The public purpose for which the displacement is compelling; c) That the proposal or plan may be inspected at the implementing agency’s Headquarters or other appropriate office as the local implementing agency may determine; and, d) That any person affected may, by written notice, object to the transaction giving reasons for doing so, to the implementing agency within a period to be specified at the time of publication of the notice. 3) Taking and keeping thorough documentation, including of all holdings and assets affected by the Project. March 2014 49 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement 4) Observing to the greatest practical extent, fair resettlement and compensation practices, guarding against infringement of PAPs interests. Toward achieving this, among others, the Project through the local implementing agency: a) Shall bear the ultimate burden of resettlement and compensation; b) As appropriate, shall totally resettle and compensate PAPs prior to commencement of its works phase; c) Shall take into account the rights and freedoms of PAPs as set out in the Bill of Rights, and Articles 46 and 47 of the Constitution of Kenya (2010); d) Shall provide full information to PAPs on the procedures it applies and decisions it makes, including on valuation of their assets; e) Shall make all compensation payments in the presence of PAPs and a witness; and, f) May involve independent institutions to monitor related activities and report back on deviations. The independent institutions may either or not use their own funding, depending on the agreement entered with the Project. 5) Drawing resettlement and compensation agreements that will be signed by PAPs. 6) Monitoring and evaluating resettlement and compensation activities brought about by its implementation; and appropriately acting on the adverse effects observed. 7.10 Implementation Schedule As per the foregoing discussion, the implementation schedule of compensating PAPs will therefore be limited to re-installing PAPs within the beneficiary Settlement. Its proposed broad components, respective timelines, and activities are as given under Table 21. The Project implementation team could improve on this, to make it as exhaustive and effective as possible.

Brief on What is Monitoring and Evaluation Monitoring focuses on what is happening. It is a routine process of collecting and managing project data that provides feedback as pertains to the progress of a project. The process involves measuring, assessing, recording, and analysing the project information on a continuous basis, and communicating the same to those concerned24. On the other hand, evaluation focuses on what has happened. It is an episodic process that determines the impact of an intervention. The process involves reviewing both actions and assumptions behind an intervention, to determine as systematically and objectively as possible, the relevance, effectiveness, and impact in light of their objectives25. And, the relationship between monitoring and evaluation can be summarised as follows26: ITEM MONITORING EVALUATION a) Frequency Periodic, regular *Episodic (usually performed at the beginning, mid and end of an intervention cycle) b) Main action Keeping track or overview Assessment c) Basic purpose Improve efficiency, adjust work Improve effectiveness, impact, informed plans future programming d) Focus Inputs, outputs, process outcomes, Effectiveness, relevance, impact, cost- work plans effectiveness e) Information Routine systems, field observations, Same, plus surveys, studies sources progress reports, rapid assessments f) Undertaken **Project manager, and ***beneficiary **Project manager, ****supervisor, by community ****funders, external evaluators, ***beneficiary community g) Reporting to **Project manager, ***beneficiary **Project manager, ****supervisor, community, ****supervisors, ****funders, ***beneficiary community ****funders Notes: a) *The evaluation done at the beginning, which is referred to as a baseline survey, has been done and is presented in this resettlement instrument b) In the case of this resettlement instrument: ** Project manager is RIC ***Beneficiary community is SEC, PAPs, and the beneficiary community ***Supervisor and funders is the WB II. Objectives of Monitoring and Evaluation of this Resettlement Instrument From the foregoing discussion, it has been shown that on implementation of the engineering works phase of KISIP, PAPs will result. Toward effective implementation of the Project, these PAPs have to be adequately re-installed. This report, as per its preceding sections, presents the baseline conditions of the PAPs, (which were taken prior to engineering works of the Project), 24 Mulwa, Francis W; and, Simon N Nguluu. 2003. Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation: A Strategy for Organisation Strengthening (Second Revised Edition). PREMESE-Olivex Publishers, Nairobi, Kenya 25 ibid 26 ibid March 2014 53 CAS Consultants Consulting Engineers Kenya Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement and proposes activities that are to be undertaken to ensure adequate re-installation of the PAPs. Implementation of the proposed activities is spread: some activities are applicable prior to engineering works phase of the Project, while others during the engineering works phase of the Project. It is significant to monitor and evaluate implementation of these activities as part “I� of this section (7.11) briefly justifies. The overall objective of monitoring and evaluating implementation of these activities is to ensure just re-installation of PAPs is achieved. Vis-à-vis, the specific objectives are: a) To assess whether the objectives of this resettlement instrument are realised; b) Where the assessment reveals that these objectives are not realised, follow-up measures are proposed and implemented; and, c) To ensure compliance with the instrument. As proposed under Section 7.5 above, the RIC will be responsible for the adequate monitoring and evaluation of the activities set forth in this resettlement instrument. Worth mentioning at this point, during preparation of this resettlement instrument, it was noted that KISIP has both a monitoring and evaluation unit, and an environmental and social safeguard team. These contributed in their different capacities in the preparation of this instrument. Thus, the capacity to undertake adequate monitoring and evaluation of this resettlement instrument exists within the borrower. In all this, the WB’s role will be to regularly supervise resettlement implementation to determine compliance with this resettlement instrument. III. Monitoring Plan of this Resettlement Instrument A monitoring plan indicates parameters to be monitored, institutes monitoring guidelines and provides resources including responsible persons or institutions, necessary to carry out the monitoring activities. Table 22 is a proposed monitoring framework that the Project could use. The “Key Activities� to be monitored under each “Specific Objective�, and their “Timeline�, are synonymous to the “Proposed Activities� and their “Proposed Timeline� under each “Component� as put in Table 21 (Table 21: Proposed Implementation Schedule). Successful completion of each proposed “Key Activity� marks as the indicator that clearly shows output of the activity has been achieved. To be noted, this monitoring plan takes into account the baseline conditions of PAPs prior to implementation of the engineering works phase of KISIP. Annex 8.2 gives the detailed baseline conditions for each of the PAPs. This is summarised in Tables 17 (This RAP Report’s Proposal of How Project Affected Person is to be Compensated/Mitigated), 18 (Proposed Mitigation Measures Project Could Take Regarding Partial Loss of Structure, and Residual is Viable), and 19 (Summary of the Evaluation of the Impacts of KISIP on Kariobangi Informal Settlement). This proposed monitoring framework could be improved on by the Project team/RIC as may be required, for a more comprehensive framework. Noteworthy, routine systems, field observations, progress reports and rapid assessments constitute the sources of information of action progress and indicator realisation of this monitoring framework. The frequency of reporting will be determined by RIC as is appropriate.

Informal Settlements Improvement Project: Machakos Region Resettlement Action Plan Report for Kariobangi Informal Settlement IV. Evaluation of the Resettlement Implementation The Project has a responsibility of ensuring PAPs enjoy the same or higher standards of living than before the Project. The risk of massive disruption of lifestyles of PAPs as a result of the Project is predicted to be low. However, evaluation of the impact of resettlement implementation is recommended to minimise and/or reverse the observed adverse impacts of the Project. In the middle of the resettlement implementation cycle, and upon completion of the Project, RIC will undertake respectively a mid-term evaluation and an end of project evaluation to determine whether the objectives of this resettlement instrument have been realised. The evaluations will take into account the baseline conditions presented here, and the results of resettlement monitoring. If the evaluations reveal that these objectives may not have been realised, RIC will propose follow-up measures. In this, the WB, as deems appropriate, will continue its supervision role. Table 23 provides an overall guide on the components to be evaluated under this resettlement instrument.
