"content": "This Bill also speaks about the sharing of resources between the three levels of Government. One thing about this Bill that makes me happy is consideration of the community. In this Bill, the community is considered in that communities are not going to be taken by surprise whenever there is an issue on mining or when mining activities are taking place in a particular area. The communities will be sensitized and get to know who is coming to do what and what percentage they shall get as a community. The other reason I support this Bill is because it defines a community. Many times we have not known what a community is but in this Bill, the community is specified and it will be understood as the host community, especially those who are hosting international companies in their various areas. It is also a Bill that I believe will keep the communities in the know; that the communities will not be in darkness whenever there is a certain mineral in their areas. For example, Nakuru where we have several minerals yet the communities are not aware. In this Bill, everything has been mentioned, specified and provided for. It also mentions about sharing of royalties, that 60 per cent will go to the national Government."
