    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I will be very brief. We are responding to the Statement by Hon. Oluoch specifically on the Kshs 4.5 billion which was reduced in Supplementary Estimates I from the NG-CDF. During the 2017/2018 Financial Year, NG-CDF was allocated Kshs 30.9 billion. However, during the first Supplementary Budget Estimates last year in October, that figure was reduced to Kshs 26.5 billion because the Government was in need of cash to run elections. We are now in the second Supplementary Budget Estimates. As the Budget and Appropriations Committee, we shall be waiting for submissions next week from Departmental Committees and we will be looking forward to see whether there will be a proposal to increase the NG-CDF by Kshs 4.4 billion so that we go back to Kshs 30.9 billion. The Budget and Appropriation Committee will then put that into consideration. That is the end of the Statement, I thank you."
