    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in supporting this Motion, I do it with the realization that procurement is the most important function of Government, where all funding has to pass through. It is in procurement that the Government and Kenyans as a whole have lost funds over the years through corruption, overpricing, non-delivery and all manner of tricks and fraud. It is my hope that this new appointment and the law in place will actually be properly exercised and followed and that, as a result of that, the Government will be purchasing goods and services at optimal prices; indeed, at lower prices than one can purchase from the market for many reasons, but mainly because of economies of scale. It is very embarrassing to find that most of the Government’s purchases are at higher prices than a single individual purchases from a shop. You wonder what happened to discounts that are given for bulk purchasing."
