"content": "I also have to talk a little about the Appropriations-in-Aid (AIA), which in this country are substantial, but are not netted properly by the National Treasury and go to waste. This money should be brought to the system of budgeting, so as to avoid pilferages of sources. I would also wish that judgment debts like the Kshs1.4 billion given for the Anglo Leasing payments should be envisaged and provided for in the budgeting process, so that we avoid the possibility of the country almost coming to a standstill, or losing in the process. You can see that as a result of paying the Kshs1.4 billion, we have been able to float bonds abroad and we expect cheap money in the country. As for the railway, I support it fully and wish the Government will do the right thing. I come from Nandi, where the legendary Samoei and his group, resisted building of railway; we have since noted that a railway is the way to go. I support these Supplementary Estimates. Thank you.
