    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, is the PAC Chairman, hon. Khalwale, in order to mislead this House that no interim orders were made beyond the time I was in office whereas the documentation by the Auditor-General, on which he relied, clearly, show the following:- (i) hon. Kimunya was at the Treasury between 2006-2008, and all hon. Members can remember the drama that was in this House; (ii) in June, 2009, an interim order was issued for 450 million pieces of currency notes for Kshs1.6 billion; and, (iii) in July, 2010, another interim order for 483 million pieces of currency notes was issued at Kshs1.8 billion. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, interim orders were not issued during hon. Kimunya’s tenure at the Treasury. The fact that the PAC Chairman cannot read out these details is an indication of the fact that personal issues have overtaken even basic reading to appreciate when events took place. Is the hon. Member in order to mislead this House by saying that no interim orders were issued when he has all the facts to the contrary or he should have had those facts because they are part of his Report?"
