"content": "Even as the Bill proposes to form the county environment committee, some of the counties are very expansive. Some of them have very diverse climatic conditions. You may find a county that has a sub-county with full forest cover and another sub-county that may be almost a desert. The county environment committee alone may not address the issues that affect particular sub-counties, especially if they do not have adequate representation in those areas. Therefore, we will be seeking to introduce amendments to provide the counties with the option of retaining the Sub-County Environment Committees, so that we can be able to address the gaps that may be there, depending on the size of the county. It does not have to be compulsory. We seek to make amendments so that counties can put in place there committees on need basis. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Bill is generally good. It may be complicated, but we have no choice but to deliver good laws for the people of Kenya."
