    "content": "Hon. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order No.44(2)(c), I wish to request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Finance, Trade and Planning regarding the status of the establishment of Ronald Ngala Utalii College in Kilifi County. Hon. Speaker, the Government approved the construction of Ronald Ngala Utalii College as the second national tourism institution. The said college was proposed in 1996 and eventually approved as a Kenya Vision 2013 flagship project to be financed by the National Treasury. However, the project failed to commence on time, and so the cost of the same rose from Kshs1.9 billion at the time of the proposal in 1996 to Kshs8.9 billion at the time of the award of the contract. The contract was awarded, and the contractor went on site but the project has since stalled. Hon. Speaker, the Chairperson of the Committee should inquire into and report on the following:- (i) why the project has stalled; (ii) when the National Treasury will avail funds for the on-going construction of the proposed project; and, (iii) when the expected completion date of the said project is. Thank you, hon. Speaker."
