Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order No.44(2)(c), I hereby request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources concerning the construction of small dams and water pans under the National Water Harvesting and Storage Programme in various counties as published by the Ministry of Devolution and Planning. There were 45 counties included in the list of those benefiting from this programme, excluding Nairobi and Tana River counties. This is of concern, especially for Tana River County, which is part of the ASAL regions of this country. The county would greatly benefit from a such programme. The Chairperson should inquire into and report on the following:- (i) reasons for exclusion of Tana River County from the list of the benefiting counties; (ii) whether any research was done to inform the Ministry’s decision to exclude Tana River and Nairobi counties from the programme; and, (iii) when the Ministry plans to undertake such a programme in Tana River County, which is the only ASAL county that has been left out of this programme."
