    "content": "You have heard my colleague talk about the correctional services. It was sad for the Committee to sit and watch a grown officer weep because of the effect of no money being set aside for promotions of officers in correctional services. When the Committee unanimously agreed and decided that the Ksh1 billion should be left within correctional services, you have heard my colleague say that just a phone call changed all that. My question is what then is the work of the Committees in the budget-making process? That means we spend our time and taxpayers’ money and whatever we come up with, based on the impact of the lives of Kenyans, is nullified and voided by just a phone call and a stroke of a pen. It is time to decide whether the committees will continue spending taxpayers’ money when what they recommend is null and void. It is for this House to decide."
