"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I have said, we have issued a Treasury Circular to all Accounting Officers providing the guidelines on Budget implementation. It is in the interest of the Treasury and Kenyans as a whole if funds allocated are utilized for the intended purpose and within the financial year. To enhance our capacity to monitor the utilization of funds disbursed to Ministries, I have stated that we have the Budget Implementation and Disbursement Committees which are being reconstituted across the country to help us at the Treasury to also not just be disbursers of funds but also to help us monitor and evaluate all programmes that have been put forward to us by Ministries and to do periodic reviews, to see what Ministries have been able to do in terms of uptake capacity. Because we have had a problem, and I agree with hon. Members, with funds being disbursed and not being utilized within the financial year. This is something we intend to rectify, working with line Ministries."
