    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I join you in welcoming this team from the Institute of Economic Affairs Kenya. If I am not mistaken, this is the think-tank led by Dr. Kwame Owino. Yes, I can see them nod. When we had deliberations on the cost of living at the National Dialogue Committee, one of the institutions whose presentation I really enjoyed was this one. I may not agree entirely with what they say about the state of our economy and interventions being made, but it is not for lack of good intentions on their part. They may be divergent on views, but they mean well for this country. I agree with them 90 per cent, especially on the diagnosis of how we found ourselves here as a country. However, we may differ on the approach to get Kenya out of the current economic situation. In my years as a Member of the Budget and Finance Committee, I used to look forward to the memoranda they would share each time we had Bills before us. I wish the delegation before us this afternoon well as they interact with the Senate. Senators are very professional, staff of the Senate and the things they are doing here."
