In Kajiado Central, we have a very huge electricity deficit particularly, in the two wards of Matapato North and Matapato South.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not know if I will get another opportunity to ask another question about---

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I support this Facilities Improvement Financing Bill which most counties have implemented, including my county. I think this is a very important Bill because it is bringing uniformity to all 47 counties. We have a history of what counties have been doing with the department of health.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I also want to add my voice to this Statement under the CPISFC. It is true that we have many problems in the counties, particularly in the water companies. I take this as a challenge. In part of my county, we have quite a number of problems. I happened to attend this discussion with the Committee and we found that there is quite a number of issues, particularly on issues of boards, assets and debts as indicated by the chairperson of the committee. These are issues that the county can avoid, especially the issues of ...
