"content": "Allow me to first give a brief background of this Bill. It seeks to provide for the development, management and regulation of irrigation to support sustainable food security and uplift our socio-economic development in the country and for all connected purposes. The Bill also seeks to repeal the current Irrigation Act, Cap 347 of the Laws of Kenya which commenced on 24th June 1966. So, we are currently dealing with an archaic law that is close to colonial legislation. Once the President puts his signature on this Bill, then that old Cap 347 will be repealed. This Bill was read the First Time. It has been handled in the two Houses. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
