    "content": "revenue. I am told it is even less than what the municipal councils were collecting. If true, it confirms that we should know why these shortfalls are constantly there. I want to address something I know is being corrected, but the fact that it came into play is enough reason for me to raise it. Originally, the NG-CDF was cut by Ksh38 billion in the BPS. This amount is stated in an Act of Parliament, yet somebody has suggested reducing it. An Act of Parliament is being abused in that manner. I am glad that Members will not pass it. If it were to be passed, it would be a confirmation that Bunge is subdued, which is a black note on us. I am glad that this is being corrected. I hope it is never brought up again so that we can consider reducing the NG-CDF amount. We are doing a Supplementary Budget, but in the background, we have not received the overall NG-CDF provision for the constituencies. I have only received about Ksh30 million. My friend talks of getting Ksh23 million twice, making it Ksh46 million. He is better than me and lucky. We are almost towards the end of the year. We do not know whether we have received the money for our projects due to lack of funds. Then, that is what the Supplementary Budget is supposed to secure."
