    "content": "(c) The Ministry followed the guidelines as provided. I see that a Mr. Michael Kones who is the CDF Manager attended meetings on behalf of the CDF Committee and signed the contract documents. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the first question is asking why the Minister has not released AIEs. When the Financial Year 2009/2010 ended, the balance of the money which was being held by the Ministry was returned. Money had not been allocated again for this project. However, this year, there is a sum of Kshs250 million which I see in our budget estimates. It is earmarked for devolved projects. I have since resumed office and initiated discussions with the Treasury to find out ways and means of completing these 210 CIDCs. Out of the 210 CIDCs – I am providing this extra information for the benefit of hon. Members – 55 of them were completed and are in the various stages of being equipped. Now, 58 of them are between 90 and 99 per cent complete. Mr. Speaker, Sir, 47 of them are between 50 per cent and 90 per cent. The Bomet CIDC falls within that category of slightly more than halfway complete. Those that are below 50 per cent complete are 26; six of them have not been started at all due to lack of land. Land has been identified but they have not been started. However, 18 of them may never be started because there is no land at all."
