    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for the opportunity to contribute to the Division of Revenue (Amendment) Bill. Annexure 1 looks at the conditional grant that allocates money to all the 47 counties for improvement of agriculture, which is one of the main pillars of the Jubilee Government. Annexure 2 looks at the establishment of a conditional grant for improvement and protection of water towers and climate change, which has been a major issue in Kenya. However, although I support that conditional grant, it does not touch on the main water towers in this country like Mt. Kenya and the Aberdares, which are the main water towers in this country. Nairobi depends on water from the Aberdares and we have not seen any allocation for its protection. We have also seen that the lower parts of the country depend on water from Mt. Kenya. Kirinyaga is one of the areas that have rivers flowing, but we have not seen any allocation for the protection of these water towers."
