    "content": "This is the kind of thinking that we need to appreciate all the other challenges that the society continues to face. We need to appreciate that as a country we are getting civilized by the day. Whenever the most civilized of societies have issues that they feel warrant the attention of everyone in the community, they sit down. The communities receive the reports through their representatives at the local municipalities and county assemblies. Let county governments establish how much of the taxes were used to plant trees in a particular forest, for example, in Kericho County. We should also know how much was used to pay the forest conservators and how to improve on the forest cover. We, Africans, have an obsession of destroying forests that are already in existence. That is a worrying trend. With the establishment of what Sen. Kasanga is proposing, it will be possible to identify a particular group of men and women of integrity and have them sit in the committees. They should be people who will take charge and give a special account of what happens in the community forests. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
