TJ Kajwang’","speaker":null,"content":" Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to speak on the Report on the Consideration of the Budget Estimates for the Financial Year, 2025/2026. I want to congratulate Hon. Chairman and the entire team of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, for finalising a beautiful Report. I have compared it against the Budget Policy Statement and the initial submissions by the Cabinet Secretary from the National Treasury and Economic Planning. I am satisfied that this team has done tremendous work to change what the National Treasury brought to us. They have given us a product which looks like Kenya. I want to thank you my friend, Hon. Atandi from Alego Usonga. It is a good thing to have experts like you. We have donated you freely to give your professional services to this good exercise so that we have a country which belongs to us."}
