    "content": "I thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I thank Hon. Jakoyo for indulging me. I want to read from the Report that I tabled yesterday on this matter: “Article 223(5) of the Constitution, limits Supplementary Appropriation in a given Financial Year to not more than 10 per cent of the approved Budget for that year except if Parliament has approved a higher percentage. The total Supplementary Appropriation for 2014/2015 Financial Year amounts to an additional expenditure of Kshs244.2 billion, which is a 15 per cent increment from the approved Budget for 2014/2015 Financial Year.” The Motion that we shall be debating later today when we resume debate, I am informing Hon. Jakoyo, reads as follows:- THAT, this House adopts the Report of Budget and Appropriations Committee on the Second Supplementary Budget for the 2014/2015 Financial Year, laid on the Table of the House on Tuesday, 23rd June 2015 and: (i) Pursuant to Article 223(5) of the Constitution, approves expenditure of 15% over and above the sum appropriated for 2014/2015 Financial Year. I rest my case."
