"content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Bill and thank the Committee for a job well done in the analysis and taking us through the Report yesterday. First, I would like to make some corrections to some contributions especially on something which has just been said by the Member for Kitui Central. For the benefit of our new Members and the public out there, Supplementary Estimates do not arise because of emergencies but they come to the House because of developments which have taken place in between budgets. I believe what the Hon. Member was referring to is withdrawals from the Contingency Fund because this is what leads us to emergencies. Let us not confuse ourselves in this matter and try to show Kenyans that we are rushing a Bill here because there is an emergency. This is coming here because the Jubilee Government is responsible enough not to spend money and then bring this Bill here but has anticipated adequately what will be spent over and above what was already provided for by the 11th Parliament. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
