    "content": "had mudslides. In Narok County where we have never had land separating; that is happening now. Madam Temporary Speaker, my proposal is that we need to go beyond the committees of the counties and go to institutions within the counties to assist and also build capacity. Disaster management must start with the ethics of a community. Most of the time, we hear about buildings collapsing. That has absolutely nothing to do with natural disasters. This is professional negligence. This is caused by lack of ethics. Corruption has crept to such levels in this country that our own professionals do not give a damn whether they passed the proper building plans. Even when some engineers inspect buildings, when they find that things are not being done the right way, we do not get any report and repercussions occur. I support the Bill and still emphasize that we need to go beyond the county committees. I hope that once we pass this Bill, funding will be provided for disaster management. In my experience, most of the funding stays in Nairobi. It is true that there are disasters in Nairobi but we also have a county government in Nairobi. Funding should be availed to county governments on the ground so that when disasters strike, they have the capacity to move in with speed and take care of those disasters. I beg to support."
