"content": "On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would hate to interrupt my good friend, the Assistant Minster for Finance. However, I have a responsibility to this House and to the country. When the Assistant Minister contradicts all the things we have said--- He is saying that we are misleading the nation and ourselves. How can we overpay when the law says that it should not be less than 2.5 per cent? In my submission, I said that we could accumulate up to 100 per cent. The issue here is not overpayment but compliance with the law. We have no quarrel when it is more than 2.5 per cent. The problem is when it is 2.5 per cent which is the mandatory amount. That is where the difference has come in. Let us read from the same page. Is he in order to persistently and erroneously mislead the House and the country that the Treasury does not owe the CDF any money when the argument of the Motion is that the Treasury owes the CDF, both in terms of actual disbursements and in terms of failure to comply with the statutory 2.5 per cent, Kshs5.8 billion?"
