"content": "Government may not be enough. It may require co-financing by donors and even county governments. We felt that using the Equalisation Fund and other resources from the county governments may enable us to achieve the targets to ensure most Kenyans have access to clean water. We hope we will convince the Senators that there is value to this during the mediation process, so that they allow such funds to be used as co-financing or marching-up funds in those water projects. The Senate came up with a definition for “wetlands”. In the entire body of the Bill, “wetland” is not mentioned anywhere. We felt there is no need to create a definition that is not within the content of the Bill. Those are a few issues. We have sat with our Senators in mediation before. We have always seen issues in a way we accommodate and understand each other. I am very sure that this Bill will see the light of day as soon as we sit with them and agree on some of these issues. They are not weighty at all. It is just a matter of meeting of the minds. With those few remarks, I support and second the Motion."
