    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, as of today, neither INT nor any other party has found concrete evidence that funds have been misappropriated. As the INT Report states on page 6 and, I quote:- “The audit does not prove that embezzlement occurred.” On 15th July, I submitted a copy of the INT Report and other relevant documents to the Clerk of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Cooperatives, of which the hon. Member is a member. I tabled copies of the correspondence that I submitted, which are very many. There are about 16 documents that I tabled before the Committee on this one. The documents that I submitted also contained evidence from the bank itself, from external experts of the project’s impact and probity. In terms of its impact, ALRMP contributed immeasurably to the quality of life in a very vulnerable part of this country. Its work on drought management benefited over 14.7 million Kenyans, 5.8 million of whom were far-reached through 4,000 micro projects. A GPS reference map is available to show the location of all those projects."
