    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Speaker, I beg to move: THAT, the Supplementary Appropriation Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 9 of 2021), be now read a Second Time. Just to jog the memories of Members, we submitted a Report to this House last week on Thursday and it was adopted. Basically, this Bill is a copy and paste of the Report. I really want to thank Members who contributed to it; both who made their recommendations and those who had reservations. We assure you that we would take into account those comments as we move on. However, just to pick a few highlights, the Supplementary Appropriations Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 9 of 2021) has been prepared and introduced in this House pursuant to Standing Order No. 127(2). It is in line with the PFM Act 2012 and Article 223 of the 2010 Constitution. I would like to confirm that the contents in the Supplementary Appropriation Bill, 2021 are in line with the House resolutions of the approved Reports of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. This is in accordance with the provisions of Standing Order No. 244(b). The Supplementary Appropriations Bill, 2021 thus seeks to give authority for the issuance of Kshs125.16 billion out of the Consolidated Fund and apply it towards the supply granted for the services for the year ending 30th June 2021. The projected revenue collection for the Financial Year has been revised downwards to Kshs1.85 trillion from the estimated Kshs1.89 trillion in the beginning of the Financial Year. However, the expenditure in this supplementary is increasing by Kshs125.6 billion. As I mentioned in the approved Report, the increase in this Supplementary is mostly under the development budget which has increased by Kshs58.81 billion. This is on account of adjustment of donor funding as well as several adjustments across the board. I am glad to note that there is an additional allocation of Kshs13.6 billion to cater for arrears in the NG- CDF. Further, the recurrent expenditure has increased by Kshs20.22 billion, while the Consolidated Funds Services has increased by Kshs45.65 billion. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
