    "content": "It may well be as the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance has explained but, in this House, apart from the Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade, we have the Budget Committee and the Mover of this amendment is a Member of the Budget Committee. If a key Committee of the House is not aware of this matter, then it means the House is in doubt. Since the money will still, according to the explanation of the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, end up with the Kenya Airports Authority, for the time being let him streamline the operations of the Kenya Revenue Authority, so that there are no delays. Let Parliament first understand what is happening. The caution here is, when in doubt do not act. Before we finally understand this, this amendment ought to be supported. I beg to support the amendment and to caution that when substantive issues like this one are brought here, instead of giving us a lengthy explanation at the Committee Stage, the matter should come earlier so that the committees interrogate it. Once we are comfortable, we will be very supportive."
