"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. First, I would like to thank Hon. M’eruaki for tabling this Motion. I hope it will be taken seriously by Members as well as the Committee on Implementation for the rest of the time that we have here. It is timely. It should be a matter of common practice for the Ministry of Transport, Infrastructure, Housing and Urban Development to ensure that all roads and constructions incorporate run-off water harvesting and management mechanism. Allow me to just concentrate on urban run-off that happens in the urban areas like Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu and many of our towns. Lack of proper planning has led to urban flooding because of the impervious surfaces that are used in construction. When there is a lot of concrete, asphalt and hard surfaces and lack of storm water drainage as you have seen even in The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
