    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for a while, I was in charge of managing performance in this Republic and I easily get irritated when I notice imperformance particularly in the National Assembly that should be the example of best standards. I wish to support the spirit of this Motion. We have been promising Kenyans ever since. We had “Water 2000” and so on. Now, we are past 2000 by 16 years and some people are still fighting for water, particularly in the ASAL areas. The Motion is so wide. I fear that when it comes to implementation, it may be too vague because of what we are assigning the county governments and the national Government and we are still directing that financial framework be formulated and tapped water be provided. The spirit is satisfactory and that is what we are conveying. Important as water is, let those who know better formulate that framework and implement it as early as possible. When we think of public places, this again is a vague area. If we had said primary schools, secondary schools or market places, it would be clear. But this is just “public places” which keep growing. What about common water points where the public can take their cattle? Who then will be responsible for ensuring that the right water is in place and is treated continuously for human consumption and for the consumption of the animals? Other than the likely vagueness in implementation, I wish to support the spirit. Thank you."
