    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. I would like to refer to Head 008, CID Specialized Unit. I had just begun talking about the provision made under Item 2510 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES July 12,2006 3111100, Purchase of Specialised Plant, Equipment and Machinery. The reason as to why I noted this Item is that last year, it was allocated of Kshs305 million but the proposed allocation to this same Item this year, next year and the year after is only Kshs5 million. My worry is that since we are talking about purchase of specialised equipment, plant and machinery, Kshs5 million is too little. Unfortunately, we seem to be hostage to unchanging Treasury systems. Surely, if you talk about anything specialised today, you should be able to describe what that specialised equipment and machinery is. Indeed, when this Item was allocated Kshs305 million last year, it was understandable. The Item is allocated only Kshs5 million this year, and you are still claiming that this amount is for purchase of specialised equipment? There must be something tragically wrong with this system. Could the Minister explain what it is?"
