    "content": "The recommended percentage of forest cover in this country is supposed to be 10 per cent. It is very shameful that we are doing 2 per cent at the moment. Where is the Ministry and the KFS when all this is happening? It is the responsibility of the KFS as per the statute to provide seedlings to schools so that they can plant trees. This House is a budget-making House. When you look at this Motion, the way it has been clearly outlined here by the Mover and the Seconder, you realise that we are now heading to the right route. If you look at the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the current sustainable development goals, their emphasis was on the environment and climate change. When the head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis, was here he was very passionate about the environment because it plays a critical role for tomorrow. That is why as legislators we must put pieces of legislation in place to be assured of tomorrow. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, this House has been passing laws, but they are not implemented. Parliament cannot legislate in vain. A Motion like this must be implemented to the letter. I want to thank the 11th Parliament which changed the Standing Orders."
