    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I will take a very short time taking into account that I am fasting and I have to break my fast in the next 10 minutes. I want to take this opportunity to thank all the Members who have contributed to this very important Report. In particular, I am thankful for the kind words from my friend, Hon. Gumbo. I hope he will be the first governor to be elected on an independent platform. We will then see how things will work out. The benefits of having a vibrant and working sector is not something that I can overemphasise right now. We understand it. Over the years, we have been saying that the tourism sector is the backbone of our economy, but all that has been theoretical. We need to walk the talk. Other very important tourist destinations are emerging in different parts of the world. Therefore, this particular sector is under threat. What we need to do, and in particular for those who are in charge of this sector, is to reinvent the wheel and look at other dynamics within this sector and ensure that whatever is envisaged in any Government plan is properly implemented. Having said that, I beg to reply and urge this House to adopt the Special Report of the Public Investments Committee on the Implementation of the Tourism Fund Ronald Ngala Utalii College Project in Kilifi County, laid on the Table of the House on Wednesday, 24th May 2017. Thank you."
