    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that the road construction on Eastleigh Second Avenue is yet to be completed. (b) City Council engineers have been instructed to ensure that the necessary road engineering quality control measures are taken and supervision and standard laboratory testing in all stages of the construction have been done. Those measures are meant to guard against shoddy and substandard work by the contractor. Due to the delay in completion of the works, the contractor has been charged liquidated damages amounting to Kshs1,830,000. (c) The contractor has been paid a total sum of Kshs78,703,721.10 based on the works completed to date. That represents 85 per cent of the contract sum. However, Mr. Speaker, Sir, it may not be possible for me to confirm when the works will be fully completed before the outstanding contractual issues are concluded. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
