    "content": "This important council will help in mainstreaming the climate change functions between the national Government and county governments. Secondly, this council will help in the implementation of the National Climate Change Action Plan. This action plan is in line with Vision 2030 of this country, which is a blueprint for the development of this country. It will also ensure that we have a clean and sustainable environment. In addition, it will ensure that we confront the climate crisis that we are experiencing and, therefore, mitigating against drought and food shortage. The President has expressed himself in terms of where we want to go in terms of the forest cover in this country. He has a vision of ensuring that we plant 15 billion trees by the year 2032. The council must ensure that this pronouncement or directive by the President is realised and implemented on a yearly basis to ensure that, by the time we reach the year 2032, we will have a forest cover of over 20 percent. Hon. Temporary Speaker, on the rejection of the nominee, Ms. Umra Omar, this is an indication that Parliament is not a rubber stamp or a conveyer belt. If your name is forwarded for vetting, you must prepare yourself. Otherwise, if you just come and think that you can take Parliament or its committee for granted, you will be in for a rude shock. So, I support the nomination of the three members and the rejection of Ms. Umra Omar. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
