    "content": "to be implemented in the various constituencies countrywide. However, the token increment on CDF is wanting. We would like the Minister to consider doubling the money allocated to the CDF. At least, we need to have not less than five per cent being allocated to the CDF. This is because that is the only money mwananchi can be sure will yield instant results in terms of development. Much as the Minister said that the amount of money allocated to CDF has gone up by 30 per cent, he also announced that the construction of police stations and bursaries for secondary schools will now be catered for by the CDF. I want the Minister to transfer the actual money which was reserved for the bursaries and the construction of police stations to the CDF. This should be in addition to what we already have been allocated. If the CDF is to cater for all these projects, then 1760 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES June 29, 2006 the net effect is that, really, there was no increment in the amount of money allocated for the CDF. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Kshs13 billion has been allocated to the Ministry of Roads and Public Works. I come from an area where there is a major road. It is the only Class B road in the country which is not tarmacked. It is the road that links Kibwezi to Kitui all the way to Mwingi, Maua, Isiolo and ending up in Ethiopia. I want to request the Minister to consider this road so that it can be tarmacked during this financial year. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those remarks, I beg to support."
