    "content": "Hon. Speaker, the Chair talked about the changes in the Vote of the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) but for avoidance of doubt and for clarity, I want to say that there is no additional money we are giving the PSC. What is happening is that initially, we had reallocated Kshs570 million from the Recurrent Vote to the Development Vote of Parliament but based on the developing scenario, we realized that we over-transferred funds from the Recurrent Expenditure to Development Expenditure and, therefore, we feel that, out of that Kshs570 million, Kshs300 million should be retained under the Recurrent Vote to meet the urgent needs of Parliament before the end of the financial year. The Chairman has talked about the format of the Budget which I do not want to repeat, because that is contrary to our Standing Orders."
