    "content": "so as to enable this House to make an informed decision. The Committee, therefore, recommends that when Supplementary Estimates are submitted to Parliament, they should be accompanied by the performance status of the programmes. In order to ensure that there is adequate information on budget performance in real time, the National Treasury should issue Exchequer releases by vote and programme. The same should be published on a monthly basis in the Kenya Gazette . This will not only enable Parliament to take appropriate action, but the general public will also be adequately informed hence enhancing budget transparency. Further, Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) should be required to publish in their websites, the monthly Exchequer issues received by programmes. The Committee notes that year in, year out, Parliament approves supplementary and annual budgets for capital expenditure without any knowledge of details with regard to the start time, progress and geographical location of projects. The Committee recommends that no development budget during the supplementary or annual budget should be approved without a list of projects that are reconcilable with the Development Expenditure."
