    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity. First of all, I should commend the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget, which I am a Member of, for dealing with this difficult matter under difficult circumstances. I would not be wrong to inform this House that the last figure that we agreed on, as a Committee, was Kshs226 billion. I am sure that any attempts to divide this House, on this Bill, along party lines will be defeated as we will conclude by voting in support of this Bill. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this House has always resolved issues and spoken in one voice at any one time when there have been challenges. So, I stand before this House to request Members not to deal with this matter before us on party lines. We should support the Bill as it is and the total figure of Kshs226 billion. After all, the governors outside there had no problem with that figure of Kshs226 billion. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
