    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. It appears that there is no one near me. I also want to take this chance to support this Policy Paper, No.1 of 2021, and thank the Ministry for having come up with it. It is important to mention that when we devolved water, this was one of the requirements of the Constitution that a water policy be developed so that the national Government and the county governments can manage this resource. This is because the county government cannot and could not have been able to manage this resource without the involvement of the national Government. This Water Policy is timely because it helps us deal with issues of water management as a resource like harvesting, storage, supply services, sewerage, education, training and research in this sector. It also addresses issues of climate change, disaster risk management, education, mainstreaming of gender, provision of water to vulnerable groups and youth, planning, mobilisation and financing among many other issues."
