    "content": "Hon. Speaker, in this financial year, 2014/205, the Jubilee Government allocated Kshs33 billion to the CDF, of course, very much with the support of this House and the hon. Members that we have such an amount of money allocated to CDF. A percentage of this money, specifically 5 per cent, is used by the CDF board to manage the Fund. When you work out five per cent of Kshs33 billion, you get a substantial amount of money. We are saying that we want the Board to be able to bring their budget for approval by this House through the National Assembly select committee on CDF. So, we are introducing a regulation, so that we can also curb the excesses of the Board, and be able to efficiently use the five per cent of the money allocated to CDF. We are doing this through introduction of a regulation, which you will have seen in the Report."
