    "content": "This is because I have never slept since I received this document. I visited the relevant Ministries when I received this document yesterday; if we go into details you will be shocked. That is why all of us should agree as hon. Members of the Eleventh Parliament that we have the Budget Committee. As we fight over the other Committees and about who will lead and who will not, let us have the Budget Committee in place. This is very urgent; our counties cannot make progress because they do not have resources. I humbly urge both the Leader of the Majority Party and the Leader of the Minority Party and both the Chief Whip of the Majority Party and the Chief Whip of the Minority Party to have a consensus and, at least, form this important Budget Committee, so that it can scrutinize the Estimates. I have not slept because I have been going through these Estimates. What will happen is that some people will not have anything while others will have so much that they will not even be able to “swallow” it. I kindly urge this Eleventh House - my dear brothers and sisters, hon. Members - let us have the Budget Committee, so that we can scrutinize these Estimates, and every county gets its fair share in order to heal these historical injustices. That is why I moved a Motion this morning to make sure that every constituency has, at least, a tamarc road. The maximum will be 30 kilometres. After five years, every constituency in this country will have a minimum of 100- kilometre tarmac road while the maximum will be a 150-kilometre tarmac road. So, I rise to support this Bill and plead that let us have the Budget Committee. Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker."
