    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Mine will also be very fast. Talking with experts from the University of Nairobi, some of whom were our classmates, we gather that there is a number of stations in Kenya to monitor these activities, particularly earthquakes, but those stations are not manned because of lack of funding. Could the Minister address the issue of funding those stations. Earth tremors have not been a very common occurrence in Kenya, but they can still occur again. The other thing is, in other countries, whenever there is any impending disaster like, say, storms, warnings are given through radio and television. Broadcasting of such warnings is mandatory for all stations, be they public or privately owned. Is there such a system in Kenya? This country has never been through war. We do not even have sirens in the streets, yet in other countries there are ways of warning members of the public of an impending serious disaster, and evacuation procedures are then put in place. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
