    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker. I beg to move that the Water Bill, (National Assembly Bill No. 8 of 2014) be read a Second Time. The water sector is currently managed through the Water Act 2002, an Act that was developed pursuant to the Water Policy, 1999. The Water Policy, 1999 was one that was moved to reform the water sector so that we could have wider reach of water distribution to the citizenry. The reforms that were brought about by the Water Act achieved three objectives. It separated water policy and development from sector regulation. The separation of water resource management from water provision is a major shift from the past where water provision funding was being diverted to other activities and not to reinvest into the sector."
