    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, first of all, we do not only appoint board members because they come from those regions. We look at other things like qualifications. If in a given area there are no applicants who qualify for appointment, we are not going to appoint people just because they come from that area. However, I am not saying that we have not gotten people from that area who are qualified. What I am trying to say is that we decided to go to the regions. Otherwise, we can pick board members from across the country. We are, however, going to consider the people in the Mau Catchment area. The appointments that are going to be made next time must come from that area. On the issue of distribution of resources, if Dr. Laboso listened carefully, I mentioned projects worth about Kshs2 billion, which are ongoing, or which are intended to start in that region. Even when it comes to the National Budget, an area cannot be allocated Kshs2 billion and then somebody argues that that region has not been properly taken care of."
