    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that roads E1162, UR16, and E386 have been rendered impassable due to heavy rains. I am also aware that the above roads are in need of urgent repairs. (b) A letter from the District Works Officer (DWO) dated 15th May, 2006, appealing for emergency help was acted upon and the roads have been prioritised for repair during the 2006/2007 Financial Year. The repair works will be done through the District Roads Committee (DRC) under the 24 per cent and the 16 per cent Petroleum Levy Fund allocated to the District Roads Committees. (C) My Ministry has taken the necessary measures to improve the conditions of the above roads. In the current financial year, Kshs3,494,000 or 24 per cent has been allocated through the Roads Maintenance Levy Fund (RMLF), for the repair of Road E386 between Nyagwesso and Muhanda. Along Road UR16, another section will be repaired. Multiple culverts will be installed at a cost of Kshs420,000 using the constituencies 15 per cent of the RMLF."
