"content": " Hon. Speaker, I agree with the Leader of the Majority Party. I do not want to call this Bill dangerous, but it is very important. It is giving exemptions of Ksh14.9 billion, which is almost Ksh15 billion, yet we are unable to raise money for the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF). We have fought over money for the NG-CDF the whole afternoon. Someone has brought a Bill that wants to give exemptions of Ksh15 billion. I agree with the Leader of the Majority Party that this Bill needs to be scrutinised by the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning properly to know whether these investments have happened. If they happened, where are they, and what value do they give Kenyans? The Bill is not only trying to give blanket exemptions but also backdating them to 2024. This House had passed a Bill earlier giving them exemptions, but now they want them backdated to 2024. Why? Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
