"content": "Hon. Speaker, there is one ambassador who said that decisions or choices have consequences. The people who have brought us to the mess where we are today must bear some consequence. I agree with some of the proposals which have been raised. Hon. T.J. Kajwang’ said that we are the bigger brother. What do you do when your younger brother is misbehaving? You have to deal with him. We are now supposed to do something. We must do something to the younger brother. I agree that the people who brought us into this mess or to where we are must suffer the consequences. At the risk of anticipating debate, I will agree that the proposal we had for the Senate should fund that deficit. We must agree that the Kshs1 billion should fund the deficit. The balance will be financed by the other people such as the Judiciary who made the advisory. We are also playing our constitutional mandate. Sometimes we have been forced to act in bad faith because people are acting in bad faith. The Judiciary must suffer a bit to help us manage the decision they made."
