    "content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, thank you for this opportunity, first of all, to support this second Supplementary Budget. I want to put this on record. Indeed, as the Budget and Appropriations Committee, we asked the National Treasury many questions, like the ones Members are asking. Let me say that indeed, this is the first time, in the history of Kenya, that we are approving 15 per cent of the Supplementary Budget. There are a number of items that have been mentioned in this Supplementary Budget. There are a number of items that have been mentioned in this Supplementary Budget. One of them is security. Somebody asked why the Government spent this money. I want to tell hon. Members on the other side that the Government spent Kshs11 billion for security operations. We all agree. My colleagues from Mombasa and I from Maasai Mara know that the tourism industry is almost down. Right now if we are not going to take care of security, the tourism industry will not be there. You know the people of Mombasa and the people of Maasai Mara depend on it."
