    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have to finish this, because he was given his time. This is the mischief that this Constitution was supposed to address. Under the last Constitution, you would find situation where accounts were not audited for ten years, for example. So, this is a requirement of Parliament. It is supposed to be done so that we do not defraud the people of Kenya by sitting on these accounts. Finally, now that this Government is saying it is digital, it should do these things every year instead of after every three years. The other important issue is this. The 15 per cent is just guidance. If we go beyond 15 per cent, we will have gone beyond the constitutional threshold. However, if we go below, we will be undermining the Constitution. So, on account of what the Finance, Commerce and Budget and the Senate Majority Leader have done, you have gone against the public interests of Kenyans because you are talking about accounts of three years."
