    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to take this opportunity to thank all the Members who have contributed to this particular Motion. I believe it is rather late to have this particular policy because it should have been in place long time ago due to the current concerns that have been raised by Members. A lot of issues were canvassed and also a lot of good ideas were brought by Members in the debate. Therefore, I believe the relevant Ministry should pick it up and make sure that they have used those concerns and ideas that have been raised. Once we pass this particular policy, it is important that we should look at other policies and legislation that will be affected by it so that they are all in tandem and this has to be done as quickly as possible. Finally, as many speakers have said, this concern does not affect only cities in this country. It is important for us to cascade this down to the counties because even counties have similar problems. So, I believe the Ministry should be able to have similar policies and legislation to make sure that we have planned for our counties. Further, with the Senator of Nairobi City County present, there are a lot of issues affecting this city especially noise pollution in estates. For example, where I stay, you will find bars and restaurants running in those estates, which is wrong. Some of them play very loud music in some areas and especially areas like Lavington and Kileleshwa. In the previous leadership, the City County of Nairobi was licensing those restaurants and bars which is also very dangerous for the children in the neighbourhood and also for the security of people living within those vicinities. Therefore, the Super Senator of Nairobi should help us so that we can have a peaceful and private residence so that we can go and rest whenever we want to go back home. With those few remarks, I beg to reply."
