    "content": "address cross-cutting development issues. The overall objective of the policy is to guide and manage the utilisation of coastal, marine environment and its resources to ensure sustainable livelihoods. Over the past years, coastal resources and environment were managed through uncoordinated sectoral policies. The sectoral management approach has failed in ensuring sustainable development in our coastal region. The approach used has failed because of weak institutional policies, sectoral sectors, bureaucracy, competing interests and misplaced priorities. To give the House an example of the challenges that Coastal Zone Management is facing, the protected areas in coastal areas are managed by the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS). The research and stock levels biodiversity is dealt with by the Kenya Marine Research Institute (KMRI). When proponents of projects that are supposed to take place in our coast take their documents to National Environment Management Authority (NEMA), instead of NEMA approaching Kenya Marine Research Institute for issues of biodiversity, the lead agency is the Kenya Maritime Authority because of lack of policy."
