    "content": "A policy to adequately address these perennial problems of drought and flooding has been drafted, circulated and tabled at the sub-committee on humanitarian affairs. However, on passage of the new Constitution it has been felt necessary that all other stakeholders now come on board again, to look at it afresh, so that matters addressed in the new Constitutional dispensation can be adequately addressed and be in tandem with the situation set in the Constitution, such as the county levels. It has now been finalized and is just awaiting submission to the Cabinet. In Arid and Semi-Arid districts, the Ministry of Development of Northern Kenya and other Arid Lands has been authorized to reallocate Kshs180 million for the purpose of provision of fuel subsidy for operating boreholes, assist pastoralists access water for both domestic and livestock use; conflict resolution and peace building and co- ordination and monitoring of drought relief efforts in the districts. (c) The Government feeds one million Kenyans in 24 districts while the World Food Programme feeds another 1.6 million Kenyans who are on monthly relief rations. That brings the figure to a total of 2.6 million Kenyans who are currently on relief programme."
