    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) African Development Bank (ADB) is funding four water projects in Ndhiwa Constituency namely, Chwa Sibuoche Women Group Water and Sanitation Project, Kobita Self-Help Group Water and Sanitation Project, Bora Bora CBO Water and Sanitation Project and Kite Self Help Group Water and Sanitation Project. (b) Implementation of Chwa Women Group Water Project is being done in two phases. Phase One which comprises drilling of two boreholes is 50 per cent complete while Phase Two which comprises installation of pumping equipment and minor civil works is at a tender stage and the contractor is expected to move to site in the month of December, 2012. (c) Commissioning of the project is scheduled to take place when the project activities are completed by the end of February, 2013. The project was scheduled to take 12 months with the completion date being July, 2012. However, a four month delay was occassioned by wrangles between the CBO members and the management committee. A large part of the beneficiary community felt that the management committee was not very efficient and had already completed their two year term in office. Fresh elections for the management committee were held on 26th September and the new office bearers are now in place. My Ministry now expects the new office bearers to work in harmony with the community so as to finish the project within the anticipated timeline."
