    "content": "It is important that even in urban centres, local groups are given prominence as part of the people who will be helping these committees to ensure that they collect garbage and train local communities. This will ensure that we have cleaner secure grounds in our urban centers like Nairobi, Malindi and Mombasa. Our tourists and even we should not walk in places where you encounter heaps of garbage. The only thing that we need would be to train the locals and encourage them to participate in the exercise. I can see that there will be funding since this is a money Bill. Therefore, money will be channeled to these institutions. This money should also go to the women and the youth in Mathare or Kisumu Ndogo in Malindi so that they will be part of that. They should train the locals on how to clean up the environment. They will be part of the collection and recycling of garbage team, so that we can provide opportunities going forward. As I support this amendment, I would like us to think broadly and look at the environment, not just as an issue that we need to focus on because we need to stay in a secure environment, but also because issues related to the environment can improve their livelihoods. On that note, I support this Amendment Bill."
