    "content": "Hon. Chanzu, you are right. Initially, the Fund was given Kshs1 billion to start off with. It was envisaged that, that will continue at the rate of Kshs1 billion, and also continue to be enhanced by other development partners. But what has happened is that the Government reduced that amount to almost half. I have been arguing with my Parliamentary Committee that we need to work on how to go back even to the Kshs1 billion funding. That is because in six years now, we should be at the level of Kshs6 billion. But you could see from my presentation that we are at the level of Kshs3.6 billion. That is because the Kshs1 billion was given and then, subsequently, it was reduced to half a billion. Of course, that hampers service delivery. So, it is an item that I have already presented to our Parliamentary Committee to help us with the budgeting of that."
