    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I said it earlier on and I will continue to talk about this problem. All the environmental committees in the constituencies are chaired by the District Commissioners and the Environmental Officers are the secretaries. Committees in these respective areas visit the areas that have problems and make decisions. Particularly, with regard to this Question, I will say that the Environmental Committee there is doing very well and we know that there are problems. However, I said that Section 8 of the Environmental Management and Co-ordination Act of 1999 is not very severe. I will bring a Bill to this House which hon. Members will debate and pass into a good law. However, we do not sit idle and watch as problems are being experienced. We have committees there which make decisions. What I will do from now is to instruct Environmental Officers to invite Members of Parliament in their meetings. I think that the input by Members of Parliament will assist a lot in the meetings."
