    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, one element which this Bill is trying to exempt is provision of water to Kenyans. Water is life. There are some constituencies in this country where our women still walk for hours and hours just to get 20 litres of water for their families. By exempting water drilling services from VAT, we will enable our county governments with the mandate to provide water services to engage as many companies as they can and ensure more and more Kenyans have water. This is an obligation this country has even under the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to ensure that Kenyans have water and this is one particular exemption that I am very proud of in this particular Bill."
