    "content": "Lastly, I wish to speak on the issue of stalled projects and pending bills. We have too many stalled projects in which the Government has put money countrywide. There are stalled projects like Mtihani House where the Government is pumping in money. It is 35 years old. There are some Members in this House who had not been born 35 years ago. Mtihani House is still there. The Kenya National Examinations Council is paying rent to business people. We also have our own office block which we are still constructing. It has been ongoing since I came to Parliament. Up to now, every year we are putting in money. It is not over yet. We are given timelines every time, when we will occupy it, but up to date nothing has happened. This Parliament spends approximately Kshs300 million every year on rent. They will spend Kshs3 billion for 10 years. That is a cost of another building."
