    "content": "I am not questioning those individuals. What I am questioning is the validity of the figures. I am a statistician; that is true. I know at times you can use statistics also to learn. I hope this is not so in this particular case. We know what is happening on the ground. I wanted to give an example to Mr. Chachu to learn from. If you come to areas like Bomet County and Kericho County, which are not significantly very different--- But how would you explain a situation where you are saying Konoin Constituency has got a poverty index of 31 per cent and you move to a neighbouring constituency and say it has got a poverty index of 60 per cent? How does that variation come about when there is not much variation in terms of the area, population and everything? This is what we are saying. We just have to be certain. One of the ways to be certain is to sample some of these constituencies, re-do the indices, and once we ascertain that they are acceptable within certain limits, then we can use them. But as it is now, you can see the concern of many hon. Members; that these indices do not necessarily reflect the situation on the ground. I beg to second and support this Motion."
