"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are covering only 44 districts in the whole country because of the amount of money that we have been given from the Treasury. The programme districts were selected depending on their vulnerability. I do agree that North Horr is one of the places which should have been considered first. The indicators used to determine district vulnerability, included poverty index, HIV/AIDS prevalence and regional balancing, among others. The district statistics offices provide data for selection of qualification of the locations for implementation. The eligibility criteria is on household with an older person of 65 years and above; extremely poor households and households not enrolled in any other regular cash transfer programme. The identified older person must not be receiving any kind of pension. I just want to point out that as much as we know that this programme should cover the whole country, it is dependent on the amount of money we are given. In the last two financial years, we have just been given the same amount of money. We hope we will scale up this financial year and certainly, North Horr or the larger Marsabit will be included."
