    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, pursuant to Standing Order No. 46(2)(b), I rise to seek a Statement from the Committee on Lands, Environment and Natural Resources on the provision of water services to Kitengela Township and its environs. In the Statement, the Chairperson should:- (1) State whether the Government is aware that Kitengela Township and its environs are hit by water shortages? This shortage has rendered living in Kitengela and its environs unbearable, given that water plays a key role in the nation’s economy as a resource for consumption, energy generation, agricultural development, industrial growth, livestock and tourism, among many other uses. (2) State which water and sewerage company is mandated to provide water services to Kitengela and its environs; confirm whether this company provides water directly or through intermediaries; and, who the intermediaries are? (3) Explain why the Export Processing Zone Authority (EPZA) is the company that sells water to the residents of Kitengela and its environs? (4) Outline the measures that the Government has put in place to ensure that adequate clean water is provided to the residents of Kitengela and its environs? Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
