    "content": "I also look at the stalled projects as a challenge and sometimes we wonder why ministries and the Executive initiate new projects without completing the existing ones. A case in point is one in Khwisero Constituency where we have a project of the sub-county education office and director’s office which was to be done in 2015 but up to now the project is at the lintel. It has not been factored in any budget and this is an eyesore to the Government and even the ministry. To attain this, I advise the ministry and the National Treasury to come up and do monitor projects implementation. By so doing, they will know the projects that are on course and those outside the contractual period and make adjustments when they do the Budget. Lastly, in supporting the budget, the Government should also look at other alternative ways of supporting these projects. As the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning said, we should look at implementation of the Public Private Partnership (PPP) in many of these projects, and the Government should purchase or buy to reduce some cost."
