    "content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, my clarification is that the Chairman is not responding properly to the issues which are raised. There is a disaster and yet, the respondent is saying that there is no need for a declaration. I am saying that this is very serious. He must move with speed and make sure that, that declaration is made. There has been data which has been collected. I want to know whether sufficient data has been gathered on the intensity and extensity of that conflict and he says “yes”. I am saying that, that data has no integrity and it must be checked. That is why it was important for me to be present in this Committee. Therefore, that is the point I want him to rise in that response. He says that the National Treasury has released Kshs397 million. The money has been released to whom because the public has not seen it? He is not serious! Released where? We have tried to check and we cannot see the money? Where is the Kshs400 million? Last time, when I was at the constituency, the public sought to know from me where the money is. We know the President had ordered that, that money be sent so that it can help the people. It has not been seen and I am not able to ask because I was not invited. I want the Chair to declare this response as absolutely inadequate and order them to call a meeting of security apparatus and get me invited. Hon. Deputy Speaker, there is the other issue of the management of that kitty. We agreed, during the search for peace, which is the underlying thing in this process that the Kshs400 million, which is the national Government money, should be put in a kitty where we can also look for donors to participate in this process. It was not done. You can see that it lays itself bare! It says: “Has been released,” but it does not say to who it has been released. If we get to know, then it is better. There is the question of cross-border meeting. We have a problem with cross-border meetings."
