    "content": "THAT, noting that sustainable development requires access to data, information, knowledge and understanding about the environment and natural resources including socio-economic opportunities; aware that about 80 per cent of the data and information required for planning and decision-making is spatial or geographical in nature; geo-information, and is currently processed effectively and efficiently using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology; further aware that information is currently not readily available and accessible to users due to lack of harmonized and co-ordinated development of Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) among other reasons; concerned that rational planning and decision making, both at the national and county levels is not possible without the establishment of data and information infrastructure, this House urges the Government to urgently formulate a geo-information policy and establish a secretariat that will co-ordinate the development of a web-based SDI at both national and county levels in order to allow the users to readily have access to data and information in line with Article 35 of our Constitution."
