    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. On Tuesday last week, that is on 24th June, 2008, the Minister of State for Planning, National Development and Vision 2030 made a Statement to this House on the disbursement of Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) money. I quote:- \"The Treasury has not released the balance of Kshs7.6 billion. The Ministry of Finance has promised to release the entire balance by Friday, 27th June, 2008.\" Today, it is Tuesday, 1st July, 2008. He went further to say:- \"I want to report that this morning, I was called by the Minister for Finance. He said that they have now released Kshs8 billion and the balance of Kshs4.6 billion will be released on Friday, 27th June, 2008.\" You remember that, that same day, I sought clarification from the Minister to provide evidence on the money that he had released to CDF. I want to submit to the House that the Minister has only released Kshs3 billion! I can confirm he did that by today at 3.00 p.m. Again, this is a matter which touches on the integrity of Ministers and their commitment to this House. The law is very clear that the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) money should be allocated on a quarterly basis. The whole of last year---"
