Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I agree with that amendment to that clause because the words “mental disorder or mental disability” are demeaning to the people with disabilities. So, it is good to delete it.

First, the priorities given in the Financial Statement indicate the direction in which the Jubilee Government is taking the country. That is the right way. Obviously, there are certain areas that may require more attention in terms of support. As a country, we need to put money into the sectors that will lead to improvement of the economy and create opportunities for the majority of the people. If we improve the environment in which we do business, we will expand the economy. After this, even the wage bill will not be a big issue. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, there is ...

Those of us who have visited such places realise that ASALs are places where we can have serious investment in terms of water harvesting. We now have rain. In some areas of this country, including my constituency, there is water deficit. All the water that we receive will go to waste and we will continue having problems.

Thank you, hon. Speaker. I stand to support this Bill for the following reason: First, although there seems to be some issues around it which have been highlighted, in my opinion, having this kind of Bill establishing boards at the county level will bring an element of coordination. As it is now, we have a lot of duplication of efforts at that particular level. When you realize that there is a project that is being undertaken and then it is taken over by another arm--- I believe that if we have those kinds of boards, they are not going to ...
