    "content": "(b) There is, therefore, no money to be re-allocated since there was no allocation of the Kshs600 million in the first place. Nonetheless, I would like to give the Member a background to this issue. We, in the Ministry, are aware that there have been proposals to construct Marakwet District Hospital, which are yet to materialize. The District Development Committee (DDC) meeting held in 2003 proposed the construction of the hospital at Kiprabai Forest, but the site was later changed to Cheseweu, which was found to be more suitable. This was done by the DDC’s decision in March, 2005. At that time, the project was estimated at Kshs600 million. In 2005, the community donated 40 acres of land to the Government situated 12 kilometres from the district headquarters at Kapsowar. A revised cost estimate was done by the District Works Officer, which was communicated to us at a region of Kshs450 million. By that request, the Ministry made provisions in 2006. But unfortunately, the ceilings for the then Medium-Term Expenditure Framework could not accommodate the expenditure."
