    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Finance and Budget regarding the development spending in Lamu County for the first half of the financial year 2024/2025. In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Identify the specific factors that have contributed to Lamu County's small development absorption rate of less than five per cent, detailing any administrative, financial or logistical challenges that hinder development in the first half of the Financial Year 2024/2025. (2) Provide a detailed breakdown of the development budget allocated for Lamu County in the Financial Year 2024/2025, specifying approval estimates, actual disbursement and expenditure levels. (3) Disaggregate the unspent development funds by sector, identifying affected projects and budgetary allocation and the implications of delays in non-implementation. (4) Assess the implementation status of the County's Annual Development Budget Plan (ADBP), detailed project milestones, deviation from the planned timelines and collect measures undertaken, highlighting any projects that have been delayed or abandoned. (5) Outline the fiscal and administrative strategies the County Government has adopted to ensure absorption in the second half of the Financial Year 2024/2025, including monitoring frameworks and accountability mechanisms and submit supporting documentation to the Senate. I thank you."
