    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I apologize for the Member not having a written answer. I beg to reply. The Mzima Phase I Rehabilitation Project is a major component of the Kenya Water and Sanitation Service Improvement Project under the combined Kenya Government, French Government and World Bank funding of Kshs7 billion. The Mzima Phase I Rehabilitation Project will utilize Kshs1.3 billion out of the total funding. The project is being implemented through the Coast Water Services Board. Regarding the status of implementation, prequalification of contractors was done on 12 November, 2009 and tenders were issued to prequalified contractors on 5th March, 2010 and were closed on 26th April, 2010. The evaluation was done and recommendation of award made. The Ministry is waiting for a “no-objection” from development partners whom we are collaborating with in the funding of the works. The Coast rehabilitation works, when completed, will improve the performance of the pipeline system liability and give an additional 5.0 million litres of water per day into the supply system. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, further, Coast residents will enjoy relief resulting from additional water supply of 51.2 million litres per day, once the following other components of the project are completed:- (i) Rehabilitation of the Baricho Waterworks; (ii) Rehabilitation of Tiwi Boreholes and Likoni Pipeline; (iii) Rehabilitation and expansion of Marere Pipeline; (iv) Rehabilitation of Mombasa reticulation system to improve service access and reduce water losses; and, (v) Rehabilitation of water supplies in Voi, Hola, Kwale, Kilifi, Malindi and Lamu towns."
