    "content": "It is true that we require audit to be done periodically. However, normally, there is an exit clause after you have used a quarry, an audit is done and a closure is done. A closure of a quarry is another process that requires NEMA to also supervise. This is where we mentioned that we need to get the report come out. I know that in Thika, we only had one member of staff. We realized that they suffer from staff issues. Where we have active quarries like we did, that could have been an area which could have attracted more members of staff and a vehicle to supervise the activities. That is something else we have noted, and we will look into. We are considering having a vehicle sent to the place, and the District Environmental Officer to be facilitated to do the supervision, because it is a main quarry that is being used by Nairobi. Yes, these have been death traps and we are working on them. I want to assure the House that we are paying a lot of attention. It was an eye-opener for us when we visited it. We will make sure that we pay more attention to that."
