    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, first, the answer which the hon. Member got was replaced. As you may recall, last week, Parliament resolved here that answers should be signed by me. When it was resolved that, I had to give the answer according to what I thought was correct. That is why what the hon. Member has is different from what I have. He is going to get a copy of the correct answer just now. The issue of the applicants being charged Kshs500 was discussed in the Ministry together with the Central Bank of Kenya. It was resolved that those who have Kshs10,000, which was the minimum, should not go to their commercial banks. The commercial banks will continue to charge them Kshs500. It was agreed with the receiver banks, which I have enumerated here, that they will cash the cheques for the applicants for a payment of only Kshs50. It is, therefore, not correct to say that the Ministry is not sensitive to the suffering of the wananchi. If they want to go to their banks, they will be charged that Kshs500, but they have an option to go to the receiver banks, who will charge them only Kshs50."
