    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank you for this opportunity to support this Motion very strongly. I believe hon. Members have had a very fruitful time. I want to congratulate them for the sacrifices that they have made during this session, including staying up to late to ensure that we pass all the Bills that we have passed. I also want to congratulate the Minister in charge of Finance. I want to particularly thank him for the amount of money he has allocated to the Mau evictees. We hope this time round, we will not have any more dillydallying and passing of the buck. I hope that money will be put in the basket it is supposed to go to so that those people are finally settled. I am not talking just about the people of Mau, but also the other evictees. With regard to education, we desperately need teachers. Hon. Uhuru, this is a serious problem in the country. We know that education standards are not going to be met simply because our country lacks 28,000 teachers in our schools. The amount of money that has been set aside for the purposes of energy in the Rural Electrification Authority (REA) will not be enough. If it is true that we can only access Kshs6 million per constituency, that is not enough. This is an area where we have felt the real meaning of equitable distribution across the country. So, I hope that we are going to see some readjustments in the Budget so that we get more funding in this line. I want to congratulate all those who have been appointed to fill the recently contested offices, that is, the Chief Justice, Dr. Mutunga; the Deputy Chief Justice, Ms."
