    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this Bill. The Ministry of State for Special Programmes requires funding. The other day, I was checking for foodstuff for the people of Samburu North in Baragoi area who were displaced and robbed of their livelihood, that is, their cattle. They are now living without food at all. I was told that the Ministry does not have resources to buy foodstuffs. I am, however, glad that a substantial amount of money has now been put in this budget not only to help the people of Baragoi, but also the people of Tana River and Western Kenya who have faced disasters through the recent rains. I hope that the Minister will move very quickly to support those communities. Of great interest are the resources required in the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security, especially the new Inspector-General who has moved in very quickly to deal with a number of security challenges that are cropping up this time when we are preparing for elections. It is critical that resources are given to the Inspector-General so that he does his work well. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
