    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a)Yes, I am aware that there is shortage of clean water for drinking in Kargi Location in Loiyangalani District and shortage is mainly due to limited water resources and the erratic nature of the rainfall in this area. (b) I am also aware that the ground water from boreholes in this region is very saline. (c) My Ministry, through the National Water Conservation and Pipeline Corporation (NWCPC), will develop large size pans and dams in flood channels and drill more boreholes after conducting feasibility studies for ground water development away from the centre, at least 10 to 15 kilometers, towards the expected recharge zones as boreholes away from the centre have yielded water of good quality. Towards this end, my Ministry, through the Northern Water Services Board (NWSB), has set aside Kshs30 million for construction of two pans and drilling of two boreholes in this current financial year."
