    "content": " I will also cover you! Let me take this moment to congratulate the Minister in person, his members of staff and all 3302 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES August 21, 2007 the professionals in the Ministry. Like hon. Members have said, those people have travelled all over the country. In fact, I believe they went round to see the problems affecting the people and came up with their budget. I am sure their budget is based on needs. I wish this Ministry could be given more money than the Kshs15 billion. The needs and the expectations of the Ministry is to cover the country more fairly. That would require more than the allocated Kshs15 billion. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am happy because the Minister and his team have got the ability to do that. I think their limitation is only money. I know that because of the number of dams and boreholes they have constructed in the country. What they have done is wonderful. We would like them to continue. At one time, we had a Minister called Dr. Kiano who, at one time, was having a dream of delivering water nearer to the granary of every family. I am sure that is the expectation of the Minister because he has gone round the country. On average, there are people who live nearer or further to water points. But the average walking distance is about two kilometres."
