"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute to the adoption of this Report. I thank the Committee for a job very well done. This Report is massive. You do not have to be an accountant to understand the content of this Report. Having looked through parts of this Report, I cannot cheat that I have done a comprehensive review. I have a few things I would like to say, which are important in this particular respect. The issue of IFMIS has been lingering on for a long time as a problem. We are wondering whether it is the levels of financing of the processes that lead to making it a perfect means to use for purposes of enabling us to have an efficient accounting system or what the problem is. This is because the Kenya Government cannot claim not to have enough money. We do not know whether it is lack of technology. We can even have technology borrowed or bought from other places. It is a challenge as a country to be talking about IFMIS so many times and being given as a reason why efficiency and effectiveness is not adopted across the board in terms of the financial management of this country. So, we have no excuse. I think what we need is to have a perfect working management system that is going to help us move on."
