    "content": "Firstly, the Budget Estimates for this year have restored the power and authority of the Departmental Committees in their participation in the budget-making process. Most of the Chairs of the various Departmental Committees have spoken here. They have confirmed that, unlike before, the recommendations from the Departmental Committees which are in charge of the various ministries, departments and sectors of Government, have been carried forth. This is unique. In the past, departmental committees assisted the Budget and Appropriations Committee in this process, but what they recommended in some cases was not carried forth. I commend the Budget and Appropriations Committee chaired by my brother, Hon. Samuel Atandi, for that good work. Number two, there have been complaints that the Budget Estimates and the allocation and appropriation of national resources have been unequal and unfair to some regions, people and sectors of governance. Hon. Atandi, today, I was very glad when I saw a road specifically mentioning Mandera County. It was so pleasant.
