    "content": "First, the priorities given in the Financial Statement indicate the direction in which the Jubilee Government is taking the country. That is the right way. Obviously, there are certain areas that may require more attention in terms of support. As a country, we need to put money into the sectors that will lead to improvement of the economy and create opportunities for the majority of the people. If we improve the environment in which we do business, we will expand the economy. After this, even the wage bill will not be a big issue. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, there is also need to consider certain sectors like agriculture. There is already a move to put more land under irrigation. However, irrigation does not need to be confined to certain areas. About 83 per cent of Kenya’s land mass is considered ASAL. In my opinion, that is the land that has more agricultural potential than the land that we consider to be potential.
