    "content": "Madam Deputy Speaker, I rise, pursuant to Standing Order 47(1), to make a Statement on a matter of general topical concern, namely, the attainment of ideal urban waste management. Madam Deputy Speaker, as you may be aware, the industrial revolution and existence of informal businesses have caused a lot of waste generation in urban centers, which has resulted to challenges in waste collection and management. Suitable ways to dispose urban waste could include frequent and timely collection of waste to avoid scattering in undesignated areas. This should actually be the initiative of the national Government in partnership with county governments, and it can be achieved through provision of adequate transportation of waste to dumping sites. Madam Deputy Speaker, minimizing waste by reducing, reusing or recycling and adopting cleaner production technologies is of paramount importance in the attainment of the goal of ideal urban waste management. This can be done by segregating waste generated by communities and the County governments providing or causing the provision of colour-coded bags or bins as per the National Environment Management Authority guidance for the segregated waste."
