    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first of all, let me say I am extremely sorry for not being present when this particular Question was being asked. This is a Question that goes beyond my Ministry. It requires information to be collected from a number of Government agencies; mainly the Kenya Wildlife Services (KWS) and the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA). Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, since yesterday, my Director of Administration was tasked to get this information, so that I would be ready to give a very satisfactory answer this morning. This morning, we have been making frantic calls to this particular agencies and the purpose is to make sure that I come here with a satisfactory answer. As you realize from the answer that I provided, we said that we were waiting for additional measures to be informed by the analysis. Those are the results that we are waiting for. We are yet to receive them. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this answer that is before the House was signed on 1st March meaning there was ample time for these agencies to actually provide me with adequate information mainly the analysis as a result of them taking the samples to the Government chemist. I have not received this information. I have been trying to get this information from yesterday morning. In fact, that is the reason why I walked in here late. I still do not have this information. It is very frustrating, but since you have ruled that this matter will be answered on Tuesday, I will make sure that I personally take it upon myself to get all this information, so that by that particular day, I will be able to give a satisfactory answer. On my part, I would say it is very frustrating. It normally happens when the answer is not within your Ministry because you have to rely on agencies that fall outside the Ministry to get the information. Otherwise, I am extremely sorry for walking in here late."
