    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Allow me to thank Hon. Maoka Maore for the response and speedy manner in which he has responded to this matter which is clearly one that concerns all Members of this House, gauging from the mood of the House last time. There are only two things I wish to state by way of clarification or correction. Yes, under Section 49 of the National Government Constituencies Development Fund Act, committees may be able to partner to carry out projects. But the question here is: Were these projects proposed by the Board as contemplated by the NG-CDF Board and, was there public participation? With the possible exception of the Leader of the Majority Party who clearly refused and I agree with him, these ICT projects were imposed upon all constituencies. If this is the case, this must be revised. We agree with the ICT hubs but, we need that Kshs4 million revised and taken to projects on need basis of each constituency. As I thank him, this issue should be revisited so that the NG-CDF committees at the constituencies are allowed, in accordance with the needs in the constituencies to either adopt or not to adopt these ICT hubs. Thank you."
