    "content": "I want to start by indicting Parliament. This debate has come at a time when we have just defeated the Motion on the reconstitution of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. Parliament needs to take the budget-making process seriously. If you look at the areas where we have had high level suspicion of corruption or actual corruption, you will realise the Government agencies, ministries and departments which received unusually large budgetary allocation are the culprits. I will give examples of the National Youth Service (NYS), the Judiciary and the Ministry of Health, which I know my Committee is on. I do not want to go into the details. My colleagues have spoken to the fact that in the 2010/2011 Financial Year, we had a budget allocation of only Kshs3 billion. In the 2011/2012 Financial Year, the allocation increased to Kshs9 billion. In the 2012/2013 Financial Year, the figure shot to Kshs 16 billion."
