"content": "Public Investments and Special Fund Committee (CPIC), we are going to meet with the Council of Governor’s Committee on Water. I believe next week when I get an opportunity to debate on the Bill, I will have gotten what they will have told us and agreed as the Council of Governors and the committee on water. Madam Temporary Speaker, when we were dealing with the Water Service Providers (WSPs) from the counties, there are so many challenges. Sometimes the Water Works and Water Service Regulatory Board (WASREB) apply for tariffs. This WASREB would sit on the water tariffs even for two years. I believe that even if there are issues with the Bill, we will relook at it properly. If the sponsor of the Bill agrees to amendments that will be brought to Members, we may support them. However, if he does not, it will be an opportunity for us, as Senators, to ensure that we do not kill ourselves by fighting devolution. I support the Motion to set up our calendar so that we know what we are supposed to do and at what time. As people say, if you do not plan, you are basically planning to fail. However, we are planning to succeed as the Senate."
