    "content": "Mr.Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me also say that in terms of the interim orders that have been referred to in this Report, interim orders started being issued in the year 2003/2004 after the cancellation of the first contract. Interim orders for 1,120,000,000 pieces worth Kshs4.6 billion were issued between 2003 to 2005, when hon. Mwiraria was at the Treasury and Jacinta Mwatela, as the Deputy Governor, was in charge of procurement at Central Bank of Kenya (CBK). A sum of Kshs4.6 billion was procured within two years through interim orders using the same prices as the interim orders that were issued after that period. Now, PAC has no problem with those orders. Why? I do not know. But the issues that happened during Kimunya’s time, which was only 554 million pieces worth Kshs2 billion, are problematic according to PAC because it was done by Kimunya. It is not because they were done, it was because it was Kimunya. When it was done by Mwiraria and Mwatela, there was no problem! When it was done by Kimunya and Mwatela, there was a problem. When it was done between Kimunya and Ndung’u, there was a bigger problem! Now, this is double-speak. This is double- jeopardy. This is double--- I am not sure what to call it but it is double-standards of a certain sort."
