"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, research is a very expensive exercise. This road was more or less embarked on as a research exercise. The former Minister knows very well that we agreed that even if it is going to cost more than repairing the road using bituminous materials, nevertheless, we needed to be able, as a Ministry, to know the implications of concrete roads. Kenyans would say: \"Let us have concrete roads in Kenya!\" However, the Ministry had no data indicating what it would cost or the implications of such construction. Mr. Speaker, Sir, now, we know the costs and in future, if we are to construct roads using cement, we know the implications. We can be able, as a Ministry, to advise anybody who wants to do such roads."
