    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I beg to give notice of the following Motions:- THAT, aware that water is a crucial natural resource without which life would be impossible; and noting that just like other counties have mineral and non-mineral resources such as oil, gold and wildlife among others from which they draw part of their revenue; others such as Kwale, Taita-Taveta, Murang’a and Nyandarua counties have huge water resources, where for instance, Murang’a and Nyandarua provide 90 per cent of Nairobi County’s water supply; deeply concerned that despite providing that crucial resource to the national Government for which sales in Nairobi alone topped upwards of Kshs200 million in 2012 and the producing counties do not get a cent from those proceeds; this House resolves that counties producing huge water resources benefits from, at least, 20 per cent of proceeds from the same and the local residents within a 40-kilometre radius of the resource of the water be supplied with piped water.
