Today some Members are being disorderly and nothing is happening to them. I am hearing a lot of shouts and yet I want to make my point. I have a lot of respect for hon. Jakoyo Midiwo and his understanding. However, there is something that should be clarified. First of all, when you read it in the Report that it is money for public hearing I want it to be very clear that, that money is not for the Committee members to conduct their work as members of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. The money that is allocated to Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) is the money that the Committee uses to travel for public hearings and any expenditure incidental therein. This House is no longer a budget-approval House. This is a budget-making House. I started saying this in the last Parliament.
