"content": "Hon. Speaker, thank you for giving me this chance to support this Motion. When you look at what is happening, the National Treasury is taking this House for a ride. We cannot sit here to do a Supplementary Budget and then after two months they bring another one. I have gone through the information on Recurrent Expenditure. I realize that the IEBC has been given Kshs1billion extra. I do not understand why. The money that was given to them for a registration exercise in the branches has not been used. What is it that we are doing? We have four or five by- elections. Why give the IEBC Kshs1 billion? I support the money allocated to the Ministry of Interior and Co-ordination of National Government. What concerns me more is the Development Expenditure. The main reason we increase the Budget is to improve the welfare of our people. If we increase the Budget and we do not increase resources to our people, they will get poorer and poorer, then there is something wrong in the process of preparing the Budget."
