    "content": "However, it is important for members to note, that in case there is a downfall in terms of the revenues by the proposed Ksh200 billion that was to be raised in the Finance Bill, then the Government, National Treasury and the Budget Committee is also prepared for that scenario. I have communication from the National Treasury for the proposals. I wish to read some of them, that if the Bill does not pass, we will be reducing the budget for State House amounting to Ksh451 million while the security organs, for example, defence will be losing Ksh7.75 billion. We will have to shelve the ongoing events in our constituencies by reducing Ksh800 million. Higher Education Loans Board will be losing Ksh3.2 billion. By passing this Bill, 46,000 JSS teachers will be given jobs under permanent and pensionable terms. If the wisdom of this House is to shelve that decision, then it means the JSS teachers, whom, I would persuade this House to confirm will have no funding. The NG-CDF will be reducing by Ksh15 billion shillings, which is Ksh50 million per constituency. The monies we appropriated for electricity, Ksh50 million per constituency, by again not giving the National Treasury the power for more revenue raising measures, will be disappearing today. Coffee Cherry Fund will be cut by Ksh1 billion if there is no funding, through the Finance Bill. Our last plea is this; this letter is public information, and it can be shared to the Members of Parliament."
