"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I listened to the Minister and, as the previous speaker has just said, nothing much has been factored in terms of the reaction of the Government Budget towards the current famine that is ravaging many parts of this country. In the northern Kenya, animals have started dying. Some money was allocated to the Ministry of Livestock Development some time back, but that has not been sufficient enough to offset the livestock farmers. I would like the Minister to consider, in the next few weeks --- I am sure there is a possibility for him to relocate some of those funds. That is because as he spoke, he spoke for almost the entire membership of this country. We listened very well. I heard him mentioning the disabled and the elderly, but the pastoralist community is now facing the biggest challenge ever. Many animals are dying. The people need to be assisted in order to safeguard them against that imminent danger. Therefore, I would like to request the Minister to see whether, in fact, he can do some reallocation of funds and see how those people can face the challenges ahead."
