"content": "producing country we are putting into consideration and taking measures to stop the issue of environmental degradation. I also want to point out the issue of dispute resolution. As a nation we are actually very new in this field, but we envisage that disputes will arise amongst communities, companies, individuals and institutions involved in oil production. Therefore, the Bill has gone ahead to try to ensure that any particular dispute that comes up is resolved amicably and the gains are actually distributed well. Finally, the Bill has spelt out very clearly how the revenue from oil is supposed to be distributed from among the communities, the county governments and the national Government. The Bill has spelt out very clearly even to regions that are yet to discover oil. I want to point out that that includes the Lake Basin, regions of Chemase and parts of Miwani. The exploration is going on. This Bill has catered for those individuals who sit where oil is. I believe one time one day oil will be discovered in that part of the world and this Bill will cater for our interest, especially in revenue sharing among the national Government, the individuals and even the county governments. I beg to support."
