    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when it started, we covered three districts only. That was the initial pilot programme. But as the money was being increased, we kept on scaling up. As we are scaling up, we hope that it will be universal. I just want to give an example of the Orphan and Vulnerable Children Programme which started with 300 households and, finally, now we are covering over 115,000 in the whole country. So, slowly, it grew from Kshs4 million up to now we are at Kshs2.7 billion. As it is, we are at Kshs530 million and for two consecutive years, we have been given the same amount of money. It is difficult for us to say that we will scale up if we will not be given more money. So, the idea for social protection is to cover the whole country, but slowly we can scale it up. We hope that this coming financial year, we will be given a bit more money so that we can add some more districts. Please, bear with us."
