    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, one other important thing is waste disposal. If you look at all our towns, waste management and disposal is an eye sore. Whether you are talking of the Dandora plant, Kisumu near the stadium or any town, there is completely haphazard and unplanned waste disposal to the extent that any empty space is a potential dumpsite. This undermines the clean air, ground water and creates some stench everywhere in towns to the extent that we wonder what we are doing. I urge that we do an amendment to make sure that every urban centre whether a town, city or market, has a designated, protected and fenced dumpsite where waste can be sorted out, managed, recycled and put to any use that one desires. All these good ideas that we are bringing in this wonderful Bill will come a cropper if in this country we do not control the run-away corruption. Even as we say you need an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) certificate, you see work going on everywhere as long as one has paid. I hope that the men and women who will find their way to sit on the County Environmental Committees will be of high calibre, integrity and professionalism so that we can restore our environment."
