    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, indeed, it is true what the hon. Members are saying that my Ministry did write a letter to the Minister for Finance because there was that intention of reducing the Government shareholding to about 50 per cent. We had requested that we transfer Kshs2 billion to REA because the budget for REA was grossly under-funded. The Members of Parliament wanted to raise money for that. However, we did not receive any money from the Treasury, but I am not quite sure - because I was not aware whether this question was coming - whether we actually sold the shares; whether the money was received. But I know the Treasury came back to us and they have come with proposals of doing further fundraising to support REA through various donors. So, what I want to confirm is that we did not receive the Kshs2 billion from the Treasury, but I know there are fundraising efforts."
