    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. I wish to assure this House that there is adequate stock of currency, both notes and coins in circulation in the country. The amount of coins in circulation has been on the increase year-to-year, and as such, the increasing demand has been fully met. The Government, through the Central Bank of Kenya, will continue to increase issuance of currency to commercial banks through its branches located in Mombasa, Kisumu, Eldoret and at the Head Office in Nairobi to meet the existing demand. The Government has ordered for 85.96 million pieces of coins to be delivered from September, 2009. The members of the public should be encouraged to utilize the coins in their possession for trading purposes instead of storing them away."
