"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to second the Motion on the Committee of Supply. I wish to thank the Minister for Finance for having found it prudent to re-arrange the Budget. I mark his words when he said that he has âpostponedâ, not necessarily cancelled, certain development projects that are key to turning around this economy. I also want to appreciate that the Minister has, indeed, provided money both for the importation of fertilizer and maize into the country. This House may want to know that the first one million bags of fertilizer imported into the country was used for the planting season this year, and was actually purchased out of a loan that parastatals, under my Ministry, went to borrow from the bank. If we had waited for money from the Exchequer, we might not have had the necessary fertilizer for us to plant this season. However, I want to thank the Minister because the Government has now provided Kshs2.3 billion. I want to inform the House that, already, the fertilizer has been ordered. In fact, the first consignment arrived last week. The other consignment is arriving on the 15th of May."
