"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for the answer, although it is very shallow. I want to bring to the attention of the Assistant Minister the fact that sand harvesting in lower Eastern Province, especially in Ukambani, has been devastating. We have no roads where the sand is being scooped. Our river beds have been destroyed. The roads that are being destroyed are repaired using the District Roads Committees (DRCs) money and the councils are giving us nothing. We have no water in our rivers. They have dried up and there is no water for our livestock. Could the Assistant Minister give directives, so that we could have environmental committees in the villages or sub-locations to regulate, or stop this sand scooping?"
