"content": "We will also use the money as counterpart funds. We have donors who are willing to help us work on rural roads. However, they will want to see our contribution. We want to have that 10 per cent as our source of contribution so that we can join together with Roads 2000, for example, so that roads are constructed in various constituencies. That is our intention. The money is intended to be used for that purpose and not in any manner to be misused. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, as you move further, Clause 17(4) says that the function of the Constituency Road Committee shall be to advise the Kenya Rural Road Authority on the formulation of the annual road programme and the roads to be included therein. So, the committee has a responsibility to advise the authority on the issue of roads from that section. Therefore, I want to persuade hon. Members that we have this money available to the Authority. It will be used for projects which are common in most constituencies and projects that require counterpart funding as a result of donor funding. That is my plea to hon. Members."
