    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is what we need to know; and how the Central Bureau of Statistics arrived at those figures. We need to know what factors the Department uses to arrive at such conclusions. Let the Department debate those factors with other people. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, sometimes I make a joke about how the Central Bureau of Statistics arrived at the conclusion about Kabete Constituency being the richest in the whole of Central Province. That, whoever went there to collect the data must have seen a lot of livestock from Maasailand, which had come to graze along the border of Maasailand and Kikuyu Division in the areas of Karai and Ndeiya, and thought that they all belonged to the people of Karai. Those must have been Maasai cattle that were included in this survey, because the people of Karai do not have many cattle. Therefore, the Central Bureau of Statistics needs to work with the people on the ground. They need to consult the people. The people need to know that officers from the Central Bureau of Statistics are going there to look for certain information. The people should then be let to tell their problems in education, agriculture, et cetera . That information should then not only be released to the public through the Press. The information should be released to the operational Ministries, so that they can use it when implementing their various programmes. With those remarks, I beg to support."
