• 20 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. The Kshs12 million allocated to Kisii-Keroka Road for routine maintenance was not utilized since the road had deteriorated very fast and needed rehabilitation. In this connection, my Ministry has allocated funds for repair and rehabilitation of the mentioned section. I, therefore, confirm to the hon. Member of Parliament that we have already awarded the contract to H. Young and the works will commence in early August, 2010. view

• 20 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the hon. Member has asked three questions. The first one regards the design which will be completed by December 2010.

Member the figures for him to be able to follow up. Three, he has asked a question on the issue of the road that passes through the forest and whether the environmental concerns raised also affect the other road. My Ministry ... view
• 20 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the first part of the hon. Member’s Question was with regard to Endarasha-Kamuhura-Bellevue. As I have indicated, it is not earmarked for upgrading to bitumen standard in this financial year. However, we will prioritize it in future. With regard to the issue of the road that passes through the Aberdare Forest, my Ministry recognizes the importance of reducing the distance between these two areas. However, as we think about that, we must take into account the environmental aspect. It is for that reason that my Ministry has consulted the relevant Ministries in terms of environmental concerns. ... view
