"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am sorry about it. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that residents of Kampi ya Samaki Township are using water from Lake Baringo which has fluoride levels ranging from 1.4 mgF/l to 2.88 mgF/l. The area does not have adequate fresh water resources and ground water is saline. According to the Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) 2007, the maximum permissible level of fluoride in water is 1.5 mgF/l. To alleviate this problem, my Ministry is working with the Catholic Diocese of Nakuru, who have installed a deflouridation unit with a capacity of 4,000 litres per day near the lake that reduces fluoride levels to the permissible level of around 1.5 mgF/l."
