"content": "Hon. Speaker, the Constitution talks of preserving forests, wetlands, rivers, hills, mountains, conservation of biological diversities, access to genetic resources among others, but I want to call upon the enforcement agencies to involve communities when they try to define these areas. Just last week we received a petition from the people of Tana River County because the forest areas, where they have been grazing, have been earmarked for gazettement, and it is happening in other areas. So, as much as we try to conserve the environment which is actually an obligation to all of us, it is good that we involve the communities on the ground so that we do not deprive them of what they call their livelihood. Hon. Speaker, having said that this is a good piece of legislation I call upon my colleagues to support it. Therefore, I beg to second."
