    "content": "infrastructure to reach Gikomba on time to help those people. Kisumu County, where I come from, is always hit by floods and other calamities, including Malaria, which was mentioned here before. We know that when the rain comes, Malaria and many other diseases are going to follow, yet that is the time somebody wants to order for Malaria drugs. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I had the opportunity to talk to my county government when there were many mosquitoes after the rains. I asked them to help us in spraying, because they normally spray around to reduce the number of mosquitoes. Once this is done, it automatically reduces the number of people suffering from Malaria. However, they did not even have the medicine or the sprays. Alternatively, I was asked whether I could go the national Government, find out if I can get the medicine and take it to Kisumu. In the meantime, people were dying. Mosquito nets should be bought and put in place. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there are several disasters that can befall any nation. We are already aware of the bomb blast of 1998, the areophane crashes, flooding and all sorts of fires. However, we have never put in place structures and laws that automatically take care of disasters whenever they strike. This Bill, therefore, comes at a very important time. If you look at the functions of the Authority, it talks about the coordination, prevention and the mitigation of disaster. That is very important. Let me just read these things properly."
