"content": "the budget-making process. Just as our mandate allows us to consult with the public and other stakeholders, the President has made promises to the people of Kenya. He has a manifesto. I think it was a right to brief him on what we were doing and also raise the concerns we had that we wanted raised with him on priority projects, which were not provided for in the budget- process by the Departmental Committees. I want to reiterate, especially on the issues of payment of pensions to retired teachers, the issue of shortage of teachers, the Technical Industrial Vocational and Entrepreneurship Training (TIVET), Lake Basin and Ewaso Ng’iro; there were so many priority areas for which we did not see a budget. The request by the Departmental Committee was for the Budget and Appropriations Committee to look for additional funding; we wanted to find out whether the National Treasury could look for additional money for them."
