    "content": "We must also be alive to the fact that some of the functions, especially in the water development infrastructure, have crosscutting issues that lie in multiple counties. The mega dams like the High Grand Falls will serve several counties. Therefore, putting a legal framework in place that will be able to govern the construction and later the repayment of the cost of the dam needs to be anchored in a law. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this can only be done if we amend the Act, as is currently constituted, to introduce other factors. However, we must also hold at the back of our mind that the function of water being devolved and the role of the county government is well enhanced and anchored, while also ensuring that the county governments will reap from the tradable water commodity. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support with amendments."
