"content": "allocated Ksh62.8 billion to the energy sector, which will help us with all electricity concerns, including rural electrification. The biggest chunk of this budget is going to fund the education sector, where we have allocated Ksh658 billion. The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) will take the largest share. I wanted to provide you with a brief overview of some of the critical allocations that we have managed to fund, which this Appropriation Bill, once enacted into law, will allow us to process. The Appropriation Bill is a product of the total estimates that you have already approved here during the processing of the Committee of Supply. I know that Members had the opportunity to discuss the Bill in the Committee of Supply, and there is nothing new that we are introducing. We simply want to pass the Appropriation Bill so that once the Bill is signed into law, the Government can begin spending. This is not a challenging Bill, as most Members have already reviewed it in the Second Reading. Therefore, I will not belabour this point, as the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury was here and provided us with highlights of the critical expenditures. Nothing is new, and so Members should not prolong the discussion on this Bill. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I beg to move, and as ask my able Vice-Chairman, Dr Pukose, to second."
