"content": "Parliament are not there. We only oversee the projects. However, we are also members of the public in our own rights. Therefore, we are very keen to see that it is successful. The State Department for Public Works always investigates how these projects are implemented and whether they are quality or not. The NG-CDF is audited internally and externally and the reports are brought to this House. This is a well-structured Fund. Kenyans are saying that we should entrench it in the Constitution, so that they are sure because they are not sure of any other money. Let us entrench it into the Constitution to give Kenyans certainty. Kenyans trust the National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NG-AAF) and the National Government- Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF). As the Mover rightly said, these are not devolved funds, they are appropriated, monitored and evaluated right here. It is wrong for anyone to oppose the amendment. Dropping it, for any reason, though I believe it will pass unanimously, would deny Kenyans the opportunity to enjoy National Government services. That is the bottom line in all we do and say."
