Having witnessed firsthand the death of millions of fish and fingerlings in Lake Naivasha over the last two weeks, I would like to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister for Environment and Mineral Resources touching on massive deaths. In his statement, he should name the chemicals used in Lake Naivasha and the level of current toxity and, more specifically, their half life. The Minister should also provide names of the suspected firms that allegedly poisoned the lake. He should tell this House the outcome of investigations on allegations appearing in the media that one firm poured directly into the lake 1,800 litres of unspecified toxin. Mr. Speaker, Sir, he should also state when the lake will be safe for use and what measures have been put in place to clean up the mess. More importantly, the Minister should tell us when the water will be clean again for domestic consumption. We also want to know who will bear the cost of detoxifying the lake and treatment of the water for both human beings and animals. In the unlikely event that the water is not usable for domestic consumption, could the Minister make urgent arrangements for alternative source of water for both human beings and livestock?"
