    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will start with the question by hon. Ochieng as to why we cannot disband the water companies. Most of the water companies are doing well. The ones that are not doing well are still improving. We hope that in future they will provide better services. They have a lot of support from the local people who have formed those companies. We cannot, therefore, rush and disband them because they have not completely failed to provide water services to our people. The rightful company is the Telibei Water Company which is formerly the Chemosit Water Company. It is properly recognized by the Lake Victoria South Water Services Board. Therefore, there is no complication as far as the name is concerned. The Government has secured a financial support amounting to Kshs3.5 billion from the Government of Germany through KFW. We will improve water services in Kisii, Nyamira, Kericho and Litein. About Kshs300 million will go to the Litein Water Company, so that the flow of the water can be gravity oriented."
