    "content": "Hon. Speaker, my reading of this provision, prima facie, is as follows: The national Exchequer is seeking a resolution from the House to debit this account further; to enter into debt to the tune of Kshs2.5 billion; and to do the work that has to be done and then they tidy up the books in the next financial year. They remain the National Treasury in the 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 financial years. The National Treasury exists in perpetuity. It is a matter of tidying up the books. The law will come into force at some point but we have a National Assembly that adjourns in the next one week. We have elections that are coming in the next eight weeks. We have transactions that have to be incurred within the next two-and-a-half weeks. The conversation between the Treasury and my Committee led us to suggest to you that this is the only way to deal with that problem in the national interest."
