    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Committee further felt that the Government should sink boreholes and dams to act as watering points in the vast grazing areas. That is what worsened the scenario in Samburu and Isiolo at that time. Because of drought, communities had taken their animals to Shaba Ranch where there are boreholes and their animals could get water. So, that alone, had driven tourism, which is a major boost in those areas, to its lowest ever. If the Government could undertake to have many boreholes in those areas, I think the level of insecurity would come down. The communities living in those areas should gradually be introduced to farming as a way of diverting their preoccupation with animals. I had said this earlier. The Government ought to increase the budgetary allocation in future to enable the Ministry to properly equip the security teams in the marginalized areas to effectively fight banditry."
