    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Ministry's lead agencies involved in these programmes include the Forest Department, the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) and the Kenya Forestry Research Institute (KEFRI). Other interventions include the implementation of various projects such as the Lake Victoria Environment Management Project (LVEMP). In addition, my Ministry has undertaken to ensure that all major development projects being implemented within the Lake Victoria Basin are preceded by an environment impact assessment study in order to eliminate the occurrence of potential negative impacts on the environment, including Lake Victoria. The already established development projects are required to carry out an annual environment audit in order to ensure that they are complying with environmental standards within the Lake Victoria Basin, thus creating conditions which are unsuitable for the thriving of algae All these interventions are meant to stabilize and maintain a balanced ecosystem within Lake Victoria and its basin."
