    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, This Water (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bills No.33 of 2023) is interesting. I will make a few remarks on it so that other Members can also have a chance. We prioritise Bills from the National Assembly. I hope that in future, the National Assembly will also prioritise our Bills. Most of the time we give priority to Bills from the National Assembly. We will convince our brothers and sisters in the “Lower” House to prioritise our Bills, especially on enriching, widening and developing devolution in this country. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to pass my deepest empathies and sympathies to the people of Baringo County. In the past one or two months, we have lost more than 20 people because of insecurity and banditry. One of the unique cases was that of the blind headteacher who got shot. The loss of that teacher’s life explains the extent of insecurity in Baringo. He was shot in 1978 when he was still young and lost his sight. Unfortunately, again the bullets of bandits killed the same teacher. Our hearts go out to the great people of Baringo. Runaway insecurity should be addressed forthwith, so that people enjoy security. A few moments ago, the Senator for Nyamira spoke about enjoyment of rights. I hope the people of Baringo will enjoy security as their right. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard Services,Senate."
