    "content": "asked the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance:- (a) why the budget allocation to the Rural Electrification Authority (REA) was reduced from Kshs3.574 billion in 2008/2009 to Kshs3.050 billion in 2009/2010 and Kshs1.142 billion in 2010/2011; (b) whether he is aware that the reduction has led to a reduction in the constituency allocation by REA, from Kshs22.3 million in 2008/2009 to Kshs14.4 million in 2010/2011, hence stifling the Rural Electrification Programme and, consequently impeding the implementation of Vision 2030; and, (c) whether he could confirm that there is a reduction in the 2011/2012 Budget allocation to an average amount of Kshs4 million per constituency after all expenditure consideration and, if so, what other plans the Government has to source funds for REA."
