    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. I stand to make a Statement in response to hon. Dr. Chris Wamalwa’s request on how we are going to distribute CDF funds. I want to confirm to this House that we met as a committee yesterday to look at and agree on that issue but yesterday when the Leader of the Majority Party tabled the Supplementary Estimates, we noted that, and may the House listen to that very carefully so that on Tuesday when you will be debating the Supplementary Estimates you will be able to actualise what we shall be proposing as the CDF Committee. This is because the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury through the Supplementary Estimates has proposed to reallocate Kshs5.4 billion of CDF funds for this Financial Year ending 30th June, 2013. So, I do not know now whether it still makes sense for me to inform the House how we intend to distribute that Kshs5.4 billion while we know there is a proposal by the Ministry to reallocate those funds. That notwithstanding, and also I would really believe that this House will not allow that action to take place, we shall definitely be able to make an amendment on that Tuesday to decline or to refuse that action by the Ministry."
