    "content": "Finally, that the necessary consequential amendments be effected in the Schedules for consideration during the Committee of Supply. That is the import of the amendment in moving this Report in amended form. On behalf of the Members of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, and as mandated by Article 221 of the Constitution, Section 39(2) of the Public Finance Management Act and Standing Order No.235, it is my pleasure to present to this House the Committee’s Report on the Estimates of Revenue and Expenditure for the Financial Year 2020/2021 and the Medium-Term for the National Government, Parliament and the Judiciary. The Budget and Appropriations Committee is mandated by Article 221 of the Constitution, and Sections 4 and 5 of the Public Finance Management Act, 2012 to investigate, inquire into and report on all matters relating to coordination, control and monitoring of the national budget. The Committee is equally mandated to discuss, review the estimates and make recommendations to this wonderful House. Part of the mandate of this Committee earlier in the year was to review and report on the Budget Policy Statement, which we adequately reported to this House. Hon. Deputy Speaker, the Budget and Appropriations Committee will, again, review Bills related to the national Budget, including the Appropriations Bill. The Budget and Appropriations Committee, as part of their mandate, evaluates the tax estimates, economic budgetary policies and programmes with direct budget outlays. The Budget and Appropriations Committee has the mandate to examine a very important Bill, namely, the Division of Revenue Bill, which you are well aware that this House has already approved. As I move this Motion, I want to appreciate the Members of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, led by the Chairman, Hon. Kimani Ichungw’ah, who have done a wonderful job."
