    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I much obliged. Allow me, on behalf of the National Assembly of the Republic of Kenya and on my own behalf to express appreciation to the Cabinet Secretary, National Treasury, Mr. Henry Rotich, for giving us the Budget Policy highlights. Indeed, it has been a very busy year. We have worked very closely with him and his office since around August last year and I know that the Committees of the House with the respective Cabinet Secretaries have also put their hand to the plough and I express my own appreciation for this close collaboration between the National Assembly and the National Executive. During the days when we were looking for a new Constitution in the 1980s and 1990s, a lot was said about separation of powers between the organs of Government but I do not think enough was said about the interdependence between the organs of the Government. I think the fact that the National Assembly, the body that legislates, oversights and represents has worked closely with the body that is given the mandate to manage our resources and wealth, it is a very good thing."
