"content": "has only 3 per cent of the market share or what we call the newspaper market share. When they are paid Ksh18 million, it does not give us value. We are investing a lot in ICT and we want to give value to the taxpayers. Going forward, there needs to be a monitoring mechanism so that we know whether the money we put in advertisement serves its purpose. We spend a lot of money in maintaining the network across the country. We know, and my colleagues will agree, that even in our sub-county headquarters the network is not working. If you total the amount of money we use in maintenance, we are almost equalling the amount we used to put up the same infrastructure. Maybe it is also something for them to do. On the money for the old people, year in, year out they continue to cry that the money does not come in good time. I sit in the Committee on Social Protection and we have challenged the Ministry. We hope the money we will give them this time, even before they begin disbursing it, they should present to this House a list by constituency of the existing beneficiaries, the ones who have been listed who are not benefitting, and the ones who are exiting. Let that, if possible, become a quarterly report so that we can monitor that against how much we allocate them through this particular project."
