    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this answer was provided to Parliament early this morning, and it was signed by the Minister; I apologize if she has not received it. But I do have a copy of the answer; I do not know if she would indulge me, so that I read through it and then she can continue to interrogate me? Is that okay? Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) It is true that the Government allocated Kshs.50 million for the development of Kimumu Hawkers Market in the Financial Year 2008/2009, but the amount was withdrawn by the Treasury due to the austerity measures introduced by the Government vide Treasury Circular No. 2 of 2009. (b) I am not aware of any diversion of funds under the Economic Stimulus Programme from Kimumu Market. The Economic Stimulus Programme is at the evaluation stage and the allocation of Kshs10 million to the Eldoret East fresh produce market is intact. (c) During the 2009/2010 Financial Year, funds for the market development were not provided; even for other on-going market projects and, therefore, there are no funds to undertake the project."
