    "content": "Kikuyu UDA): Hon. Temporary Chairlady, allow me to support the amendment. I like the wording of Hon. Wamboka’s amendment. That, even the national Treasury should be debarred from allocating further resources to the vote of private universities without prior approval of this House. It is time this House took its work seriously. We pride ourselves as a budget-making House, but we continuously allow the National Treasury to abuse our mandate by allocating money pursuant to Article 223 of the Constitution without verification. Last week, the Cabinet Secretary for Education was here. If you may remember, I put it to him that there are, indeed, cartels that have taken over the running of the State Department for University Education. That is surprising. If you look at the documents tabled by the Cabinet Secretary, in the last Financial Year, Mt Kenya University was allocated Ksh731 million, when Karatina University was down on its knees."
