    "content": "Earlier on, I was thanking Hon. Atandi who I worked with in the Budget and Appropriations Committee, for presenting this Budget. I know people have spoken much on equity and fairness in the budgeting process. If you looked at the Constitution and the concept of equity, monies allocated to areas like Homa Bay County are still low. This is because of years of marginalisation and lack of adequate funding. I was talking to some media people earlier today when somebody challenged me and said: “Is it because we are now in the broad-based Government that we are getting some budget?” It may be coincidental if we do. However, it should be constitutional that we get better funding for areas that have been marginalised for years. I want to indicate that I am very happy because the Committee has considered the health workers who have been outside Parliament. I was actually getting very concerned. So, I am happy that there is an allocation for them. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for informationpurposes only.
