    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am just going to talk about one river in my constituency which is called Noolturesh River. This is the only permanent source of water in my constituency from which the Noolturesh pipeline diverted water, causing a lot of water shortage in that constituency. I would like to tell the Ministry that what was done at the source in 1990 was planned for a population which is now ten times more than what it was at that time. So, Loitokitok has a shortage of water and what we require at the source of the river, is a modern and big pump to pump water to town. We also require a water reservoir of about 500 cubic metres. Down the river where it used to supply water to 50 per of the constituency, we need the lining of those furrows where irrigation is taking place. The furrows should be cemented, so that we can minimise water loss and make efficient use of it and then we will have minimised the conflict between people and animals caused by the shortage of water. Thank you; I beg to support and allow me to say it is true that the Ministry has done very well."
