I rise in pursuant to Standing Order No. 53 (1) to seek a statement from the Standing Committee on Finance and Budget regarding claims of the illegal alteration by the Kisii County Government of the budget for the county executive. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I speak, Kisii County Government does not have a budget for the three financial years that we have passed. In the statement - (1) I would like the committee to investigate allegations of the illegal alteration by the Kisii County executive of the supplementary estimates approved by the County Assembly of Kisii on 5th December 2023. (2) Disclose the individuals liable in this illegality, detailing any actions taken against them, as well as any measures in place to remedy the situation."

"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant of Standing Order No.53 (1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Health regarding the management and operations of the Kisii Teaching and Referral Hospital (KTRH). The operations of KTRH seem to be having a problem. In the statement - (1) I would like the committee to inform this Senate the circumstances, which led to the loss of medical equipment supplied by the Global Fund for the Teaching and Referral Hospitals in Kisii, which everybody knows has around-the-clock security backups, Closed Circuit Televisions (CCTVs) and physical individuals who act as security guards. This is so that we can have a disclosure on the actions taken by both the hospital and the Kisii County Government to investigate and potentially try and recover the medical equipment and explain why the hospital Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has not yet provided any information, or written a statement with the Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) in Kisii County. (2) I would also like the executive to inform the committee how much money was allocated for the purchase of drugs from the Mission for Essential Drugs and Supplies (MEDS) as well as other suppliers who have supplied medicines between the year 2023 and 2024. I hope that they will be giving us an item as breakdown of the expenditure for the said drugs and every category thereof. (3) I would like to have a clarification from the committee whether Kisii County has procured the services of an insurance company, which is meant to provide medical services to all the employees of the county in Kisii, the cost of that cover and the range of benefits that the staff will have access to under the said medical insurance cover. (4) I would like to know who the owners, the directors of that insurance company are."

"content": "(1) Can the county government explain why 128 officers who have been serving on probationary terms for over six months, contrary to section b (13) (1) of the County Public Service Human Resource Manual and Section 42(2) of the Employment Act, whether they will be confirmed or not. (2) I would like the county executive to shed light on allegations of the employment of 901 employees who are being paid less than the minimum wage in contravention of the Employment Act of 2007. (3) I would like to ask the county government to assess and give the committee the county's compliance with the National Cohesion and Integration Act given that 96 per cent of the county's workforce are from the dominant community of the Kisii and very few other Kenyans have been given this opportunity. (4) I would like to have the county government review the human resource management practice in place, particularly the failure to implement the approval and promotions of 103 officers who work in the county government due with an excuse that is because of the budgetary complaints and constraints that are affecting this. Mr. Speaker, Sir, pursuant to Standing Order No. 53 (1), I seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Finance and Budget regarding the financial mismanagement of several issues within the Kisii County Government. In the statement, the committee should- (1) Have the county government clarify whether there have been unsupported expenditures totaling to Kshs381,310,505 in salaries and allowances and Kshs58,887,358 utilised for domestic travelling within the last one year. (2) Investigate the procurement process of Kisii County Government, particularly in the construction and refurbishment of roads within the county and provide evidence, if necessary, for us to know the companies that were given those roads and what criteria was used and whether the Public Procurement and Disposal Act was followed for these individuals to be given those works. (3) Be informed by the county government why about 44 per cent of its vehicles fleet and machinery, including all the equipment are all grounded, dysfunctional and do not have insurance policies taken on them. (4) Explain to this House the reason for the reported underfunding and under- expenditure in certain budgetary lines such as capacity building, which has led to the county government officers unable to perform their services according to the law. (5) Have the Executive of the Kisii County Government explain to this House how much Own Source Revenue (OSR) the county government has collected for the last two years and amount collected from the Kisii County Alcohol Control Fund. (6) Receive an explanation from the county government, the Controller of Budget and the Auditor-General regarding 923 voided transactions on the Integrated Financial Management Information System (IFMIS) amounting to Kshs261,015,000 during the Financial Year 2023/2024 relating to the Kisii County Government expenditures. (7) Explain to this House, why is it that the Kisii County Executive is still holding Kshs5.4 billion in the County Revenue Fund (CRF) account and the employees are not getting their salaries yet the Senate is working so much to make sure that we seek funding"
