"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, having considered the question and accepted the issue of collective responsibility, I think I can go ahead and answer it. Definitely, in their wisdom, the President and the Prime Minister, in their Coalition Government felt the need to have a Ministry that should address in toto the challenges facing the northern part of Kenya. That is not only livestock but also education and health. This Ministry will address marginalisation. âLivestockâ is just a small component of the general picture. While I recognize the hon. Memberâs comment that livestock is the livelihood for the people who live in the northern part of Kenya and other Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs), there are many challenges that the Ministry of Livestock Development cannot address alone. Therefore, the creation of the Ministry of State for Development of Northern Kenya and other Arid Lands is a step in the right direction. I am sure with time, it will address in totality the challenges facing northern Kenya."
