    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Whereas I appreciate the efforts made by my colleague, Chairman of the Select Committee on NG-CDF, the commitment that was made to this House that represents Kenyans was on 29th April 2025. Today is 30th April 2025. Is the technical hitch a plan to ensure that Members go for recess so that we do not talk about it until we come back from recess? Parliament is a House of records. When a Cabinet Secretary says 29th April 2025, it should mean exactly that. What corrective measures will the Chairman make if we go for recess, but money is not disbursed? That will be a serious gross misconduct of a Cabinet Secretary to the House for pledging that on 29th April 2025 the money would have been released, but now creating stories not backed by evidence. Our Chairman does not have evidence of the technical hitch. He has just made a blanket statement that he visited the National Treasury without any written commitment. We need to protect the House of Parliament of the people of Kenya."
