    "content": "(ii) Committee of Supply: A maximum of six (6) sitting days for the consideration of the proposed allocations to the respective Votes and Programmes in the order specified in the Schedule submitted by the Budget and Appropriations Committee. I want Members to take note of this specifically because we are already in the budget cycle. I believe the departmental committees are meeting and this explains why most Members are very busy out there in their departmental committees debating the Budget. Hopefully, by next week, we will have the report of the Budget Policy Statement (BPS). Once this is unlocked, we will get actual estimates coming in and this Motion will apply. I just want Members to take note so they can start prioritising after knowing the amount of time they have and the manner in which they will be contributing. This is because Parliament exists to allocate funds and ensure accountability. I know it is the fifth year and a number of Members are yet to familiarise themselves with what happens in the Committee of Supply, the Committee of Ways and Means and other things. A majority of the Members and especially those who are here today already know what happens. So, I do not want to belabour that point. I beg to move and request Hon. Martin Owino to second. I do not want to call him by his pseudo name."
