    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I do not have a supplementary question. As the Chairman of the Committee that oversees water issues, I appreciate the Cabinet Secretary and the entire team from the Ministry for the elaborate answers to many of the questions which have been asked by Members. Secondly, I want to tell my colleagues that for the few months I have been overseeing the Ministry, I have noted that it has serious challenges in terms of funding. The right to water is provided for under the Bill of Rights in the Constitution. The right to roads and electricity is not provided for under the same Constitution. I beseech my colleagues that we increase funding for the Ministry. There is a proposal by the Ministry, which I presented before this House; that we should provide funding for water to every constituency. That way, the questions being asked by Members will not arise."
