"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Thank you for the Question, Hon. Joshua Kandie. Hon. Members, Section 6 of the Kenya Roads Board Act No.7 of 1999 lays out how the RMLF is allocated to road agencies. More specifically, Sections 6(2)(d)(1) and (2) of the Kenya Roads Board Act No.7 of 1999 stipulates the following allocations to constituencies. An allocation of 22 per cent which shall be deposited into a special bank account called the Constituency Roads Fund Account to be maintained by every constituency. It is allocated equally to all constituencies in the country and is to be administered by KeRRA. Another 10 per cent allocation is set aside for the development and maintenance of link roads between constituencies, as was mentioned by Hon. Edith Nyenze, and to serve as Government counterpart funds in funding works on rural roads. That allocation is also administered by KeRRA. The said per centum shall be equally distributed to all the constituencies like the 22 per cent where KeRRA has the mandate. Each constituency received RMLF funds in the last four financial years as shown in that table. With respect to the 22 per cent allocation, each constituency received Ksh21,564,277 for Financial Year 2019/2020. In Financial Year 2020/2021, each constituency received Ksh22,642,491. In Financial Year 2021/2022, each constituency received Ksh25,319,331. In Financial Year 2022/2023, each constituency received Ksh42,598,809 under the 22 per cent allocation."

"content": "Similarly, I have tabulated the receipt amounts under the 10 per cent critical link roads allocations for the four financial years. Like I said, the totals have increased progressively from Ksh31,366,221 in the Financial Year 2019/2020 to Ksh61,961,904 in the Financial Year 2022/2023, which is good progress. Hon. Members, Section 19(4) of the KRB Act No.7 of 1999 mandates the Board to consolidate the annual roads works programmes submitted to it by roads agencies into an Annual Public Roads Programme (APRP). You will normally see the APRP being approved by the Cabinet Secretaries for Roads and Transport, and for the National Treasury and Planning. The roads funded in each constituency are detailed in the approved APRP for KeRRA for the previous four financial years, which I have attached. Hon. Speaker, allow me to table the annual roads works programmes as requested."
