    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill. Allow me to take this opportunity to thank Hon. Lochakapong for not just moving the Bill on my behalf, but also leading his committee in consideration of this Bill. Going through the Committee’s Report, I agree with a number of their proposals. It is also important to note that I did this Bill in the last Parliament; it is among the Bills that lapsed and we sought to revive them in the 13th Parliament. The need emanated from the desire to have a proper legal framework that would coordinate disaster risk management in the country because we lacked that up until now. I recall that I came up with this Bill after the Garissa University terrorist attack. It was sad because at that time, which I believe is still the case even today, there was absence of a coordinated way to manage our disasters and risks which contribute to more disasters."
