    "content": " I can start with the last one about Kiminini. Once a project is designed and procurement is completed, it is on the journey of implementation. Sometimes, it is impossible to change because the design guides the implementation journey. It is not easy to change. However, the Hon. Member can visit the Ministry so that we can look entirely at the area that he has raised the concern on, and see the plans we have or what we can take on board to deal with the concerns of that particular community. Hon. Pukose is also following up on the same. The upper part of the jurisdiction of that particular project does not cover the whole North Rift area. Ownership issues and implementation challenges, including negligence because of the huge region it covered justified the need for a new waterworks development agency. The agency is here with us, and we cannot complain about capacity. The Hon. Member should help me build capacity for this agency to enable the implementation of the project. The project has an experienced consultant, and the contractor won the contract based on capacity. Members play the role of oversight and so, let us walk together and ensure the completion of that project. On the intention, it was not ill-advised or ill-motivated, but was for the larger community's ownership. I agree that the people of Kakamega are beneficiaries, but when you look at the population data, it is well suited to be implemented by the North Rift Water Works The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
