"content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, I have no intention to debate the Statement because they are never debated. I have an interest in the matter raised by Hon. David Kiplagat because, truthfully speaking, fund managers are rogue. The questions put by Hon. David Kiplagat to the Committee in charge of the NG-CDF are very important because it will unveil the very many questions that we have especially for us who are first timers in this Parliament. The issue on fund managers must be looked into because some of these people are rogue. It does not make anything better by transferring a rogue fund manager from my constituency to someone else’s. I believe that the questions raised by Hon. David Kiplagat are genuine and they should cut across the entire county. Thank you."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I wish to make a supplementary support to the statement made by Hon. David Kiplagat from Soy. I confirm that the kind of fund managers being transferred from one station to another come with many bad records. The NG-CDF Board is fully aware of their staff. They know their pending cases and the disciplinary matters placed against these officers. The best they do is to transfer them with the same problems and culture to new constituencies. It looks like it is a systematic way right from the NG-CDF Board and the management all the way to the fund managers on the ground. There is an organised system of misusing resources, positions and impunity. Eventually, this exerts on constituency committees and staff. I dare ask what the framework of supervision is. When a matter arises, who supervises these fund managers? Who can be put to task to explain the works of these fund managers? Where are the periodic reports? I mean quarterly, monthly, financial and non-financial reports that especially look at the performance of fund managers and the Fund in general. When you ask for these reports, they are not there. The only time you get them is at the end of the year when the Auditor-General comes. At that time, the period has already lapsed. Who knows what happens when the Auditor-General is around? As a person concerned with oversight, as a Member of Parliament, you remain in darkness. When we tried to pursue the issue of oversight, we were told by the committees that there was no money yet there is monitoring and evaluation money in the administration of votes, but they do not monitor the projects. This serious matter needs to be looked at. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

I am sharing a fund manager with Hon. Chepkonga of Ainabkoi Constituency. Every time I want to meet the fund manager, she tells me she is busy at Hon. Chepkonga’s place. I think it is time that these fund managers are employed in the spirit of giving jobs to the youth of this country. This will enable every constituency to have a fund manager to carry out our project implementation properly."

Due to the urgency of the matter we will be expecting a response to that Statement to have been delivered to the House the first week the House resumes. Is that Hon. Bedzimba requesting to speak? It is Hon. Baby Twalib making a special request to be allowed to ask for a Statement. Please proceed."

"content": " Thank you for giving me this opportunity to request a Statement regarding the lack of adequate funding for projects and maintenance of buildings at the Technical University of Mombasa (TUM), especially the School of Medicine’s building. Pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(c), I request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Education regarding the lack of adequate funding for projects and maintenance of buildings at the Technical University of Mombasa. The university commenced the school of medicine project on 7th April 2017 in which a total of eighteen classrooms, six laboratories, one cold room, one library, one computer laboratory, one Board room, seven offices and one cafeteria were constructed by January 2021. However, there are obstacles to adequate funding for furnishing and equipping the facilities which has delayed the university from enrolling students for medical-related courses to date. Furthermore, the university is located at a heritage site with old buildings that are dilapidated since their construction in 1948 due to the salinity conditions and harsh coastal weather, hence requiring maintenance. It is against this background that I request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Education on the following: 1. The measures taken to ensure adequate funding is provided to the university for furnishing and equipping of the facilities designated for the School of Medicine Project including the maintenance of the old buildings within the university. 2. The steps taken to ensure that the school of medicine project is fully completed to allow the enrolment of students for the medical-related courses considering the socio-economic development effect it will have for the County. 3. The timelines which the funds will be provided to the university as a matter of urgency. I thank you. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
