"content": "Fund, we can take serviceable equipment so that we can get 100 per cent reimbursement. This will also mean that the Fund will take care of troops as they go out in the field. Equipment will be laid down in the field and their serviceability will be taken care of using this Fund. The current situation is that they rely on any amount of money from the Exchequer, which most of the time is not forthcoming. With this Fund that is ring-fenced, it will be used specifically for peace support operations. It will be used to ensure that equipment that we take to these peace support operations areas are serviceable and operating at 100 per cent. Whenever you take equipment that is serviceable, you get something commensurate to that equipment you have taken. Now that we have said the Government of Kenya guarantees Ksh1 billion and Ksh6 billion will be reimbursed by peace support operations activities and mainly by the United Nations, we are talking about a Ksh7 billion Fund that is revolving and will be used to ensure our activities in peace support operations are well taken care of. This is a good idea. We have looked at it from all angles and found it fit to have this Fund. I second."
