    "content": "Secondly, it appears that the House is not being given its proper place. This is my plea to the Minister. When these Budget Estimates were read here, they stood committed to the Committees for 21 days. We are requesting the Minister, because we still have an opportunity within those 21 days to make suggestions, to stop listening to what the Treasury officials tell him and listen to what the representatives of the people are saying. For example, the policy of last year, where the Treasury officials were talking about the computer buses, the representatives of the people were talking a different language. We could have used that money in a different way. My plea is that, although the Minister has the numbers today, please, let him listen to what we are saying in those 21 days. We are pleading that they inculcate into the budget-making process the opinions of the House. That is because if they had done that, today, we would not have an excess of the Budget deficit by Kshs59 billion. Therefore, I still stand here to say that I am not convinced that we should still give them the 50 per cent."
