There is this water project called Kakimiki-Kibunga Water Project. It has been ongoing for quite some time, almost 10 years, with very many promises that have not been kept. Hon. Cabinet Secretary, people from Tharaka-Nithi would want to know whether there is any allocation and the timeline on which this project is likely to be completed and when people are likely to get water across Kibunga, Marimanti, and all the way to Marawa. On a rejoinder, Mr. Speaker, Sir---"

I am asking this question in respect to the Tana Delta Irrigation Project (TDIP) because we have information that Tana and Athi River Development Authority (TARDA) is no The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."

Can you confirm to us whether all that land that you have taken will go back to the people or to the county government? Can you confirm to us what the Government policy is when you take land? Do you not do the project and the land is still remaining in the hands of the Government? We want to have a clarity of thought because if that land is not returned, then it becomes subject to land grabbing. I want a clarification on the processes of returning land back to the county or to the people whose land you had taken. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."

"content": "(Hon. (Eng.) Muriithi Mugaa): Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The first question was on the plan to do a 1,000 dams to completion. I have to be very candid with yourself and also the House because water infrastructure is not cheap; it is capital intensive. When you talk about a 1,000 large dams, most of them were scheduled to be implemented under Public- Private Partnerships (PPP). Public-Private Partnership (PPP) means a proponent has to invest their money and recoup that money in a stipulated duration of time. Unfortunately, investments in water have not been very lucrative in PPPs because our tariffs are not cost recovery.
