    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Let me also take this opportunity to thank the colleagues we have served with in the Budget and Appropriations Committee for the last five years, especially on this last Supplementary Estimates II. They have put the country first, and not their constituencies. It was not easy. You know how we are struggling to get even a quorum in this House. Members took their time from the constituencies to be there so that we were able to deliberate on this. I also thank the Chairs of the various Committees who found time to have quick meetings and submit to us their Reports on the Supplementary II for the last Financial Year. We already had our last Committee meeting. I am sure you will see in our Exit Report the amount of work the Committee has done over the last five years. I am sure my able Chair will table it tomorrow. Indeed, as we go into these elections, we go very proud that we have done justice to this country in the capacity that we served in the Budget and Appropriations Committee. I want to also thank the House that we put our political differences aside to ensure that the country runs smoothly. On occasions where we have had different opinions, we have found ways to support this Government. As we wait for the fifth Government, hopefully under Raila Amollo Odinga, we will continue to give him that support should God grant us an opportunity to come back to this House. Without further ado, I second."
