    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, mine is to say that for the first time, the Budget and Appropriations Committee, which I serve in, has actually been involved in actual budget preparation. The ministry has also cooperated and consulted with us. I am very happy about what has been happening. I can see even and equal distribution of resources across the entire country and not just mentioning where people are “jubilated” or where people are “corded”. That did not work. We were actually doing things above board. I also say that major services were provided. I am happy about my Kariminu Dam. The Kariminu Dam is in my constituency and it was given Kshs3.6 billion to provide water to every Kenyan, especially those who are living in this City. I believe and trust that we will be back. For those who stole like the Leader of the Majority Party said here, there are set recovery systems and the department dealing with that should quickly recover from those who stole and bring this money to the Exchequer for us to finance other good projects such as the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR); electricity; education; the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), which has been given adequate resources; and healthcare. I have just lost my sister-in-law in the United States of America because of cancer. I am sure that the Jubilee Government has brought in facilities that Kenyans are not really suffering as they used to. They were going outside there but now they can go to the Kenyatta National Hospital. Who does not get--- The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
