    "content": "Thank you for giving me this opportunity to also put in a word on this Bill. As the rest have said, we discussed this Bill initially in the Committee of Supply. This is the Bill that gives the Executive, the Judiciary and the Legislature powers to use the money that has been appropriated. We have passed a budget of about Ksh2.3 trillion. This money assist Kenyans. The Ksh415 billion of the money is allocated to county governments while Ksh700 billion will go towards development in various sectors. I thank the Budget and Appropriations Committee, led by my able Chairman, Hon. Samuel Atandi. He has made sure that this time round, we will recruit about 10,000 police officers and 20,000 intern teachers. The Universal Health Coverage (UHC) staff on contract will be employed on permanent and pensionable basis. We will also ensure that the money allocated to county governments is used appropriately. We have allocated a lot of money to counties, but most of them do not use the money appropriately. County governments should use the money they get appropriately so that there is value for money for the wananchi. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
