    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, hon. Members will recall that this House approved a Budget of Kshs1.460 trillion for this financial year. I am happy to say that this Budget was fully financed. An amount of Kshs655.8 billion was for Ministerial Recurrent Expenditure; Kshs453.2 billion was for Development Expenditure; Kshs3.6 billion was for Consolidated Fund Services, and Kshs5 billion was Civil Contingency Fund. Just like in the previous year, the fiscal framework was based on a continued stable micro-economic environment. We also, as a policy, continue to contain non- priority and unproductive expenditure and shifting them to development and social investment. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, following the approval of the Budget by this august House, for which I am grateful; the Government embarked on the implementation of the various programmes for which resources were appropriated. I wish to inform hon."
