"content": "I want to thank the President for giving this country a leaner Cabinet. We were used to a Cabinet of 44 Ministers. Half of the Members of the Tenth Parliament were Ministers. I hope the two former principals out there will see how hon. Uhuru Kenyatta’s promise has been achieved. Those who will follow in the future must know that Kenya should not have more than 18 Cabinet Secretaries, if we are to get value and efficiency. Kenyans will judge this coalition vis-à-vis the Grand Coalition that had 44 Ministers, 44 Assistant Ministers and 44 Permanent Secretaries occasioning the country the highest wage bill ever since Independence. Perhaps, Ms. Sarah Serem comes from that history; no wonder she is fighting the wage bill. She should know that, that was an old Government. This new Government has a small wage bill. Hon. Speaker, Sir, I beg to support."
