    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask Question No. 327 of 2019 directed to the Cabinet Secretary in charge of Environment and Forestry. (i) What steps has the Ministry taken to implement environmental policies as outlined in the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands and Waterfowl Habitats, ratified by Kenya in 1990, to promote the conservation of wetlands? (ii) Why has the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) continued to allow the intrusion and destruction of wetlands in the country through indiscriminate infills, construction and establishments of structures on water springs and riparian lands, such as land between Kanyagia and Kiambu Roads, land in Embulbul-Ngong Township area, Kigwa Springs, land near the Northern Bypass flyover, as well as the wetlands at Mjini Stream that runs parallel to Murang’a Road in Murang’a Town? (iii) What action is the Ministry taking to reclaim wet and riparian lands and protect them from further encroachments?"
