    "content": "For instance, Kshs5 billion is being allocated to the KPC for a feasibility study for the construction of LPG imports handling capacity in Mombasa, Kshs150 million is being allocated to the NOCK to facilitate acquisition of national primary data in the four sedimentary basins in Lamu, Anza, and Mandera. Another Kshs450 million will be allocated to NOCK for construction of its headquarters. The Committee was more concerned about the proposed construction of NOCK’s headquarters. Further, the Committee noted that the Ministry had requested Kshs500 million from the Treasury towards the same but the request was declined. The construction is against the spirit of the Minister for Finance to limit spending in non-priority areas. It thus recommended that proposed building of NOCK headquarters be shelved and that the excess A-in-A of Kshs450 million meant for construction of headquarters be surrendered to the Treasury for reallocation to Rural Electrification Programme. I am also putting the Minister on notice that I have filed a Motion to be debated during the Committee of Supply to effect this reduction. The Committee’s intention is to stop this project for now. However, due to provisions of Standing Order No.155, the reduction will be up to only 1 per cent of net expenditure."
