"content": "minutes. This is because if you look at the Order Paper, we are going to deal with over 65 votes of various departments and ministries. This gives the representatives of the people of Kenya the powers given to them in the budget-making process. You remember in the 10th Parliament, the current President was the Minister for Finance and the technical team in the ministry brought a budget that had so many errors. That is why now the powers lie in this House; that we go vote by vote where there is guillotine or mob justice, we look at vote by vote, approve it and those with amendments will also be convinced by the BAC why they are doing those amendments. If there are individual Members who have amendments then they must convince the House before we vote on that particular vote. So, the Motion is just meant to regulate our time during the Committee of Supply. However, it is also our understanding that the debate will only take place where there are any amendments proposed as reflected in the Order Paper. So, where there are no amendments then the work would be very easy. This is just a Procedural Motion telling our colleagues that in the next few days… We will continue with it. On Thursday, we will not have the Committee of Supply because the Cabinet Secretary will give his highlights in the Budget and then next Tuesday we will continue with this Committee of Supply until we conclude within the six days provided for in the Motion that we passed last week. With those many remarks, I really want to give this chance now to the actual owner of this business, the Chairman of BAC, to second."
