"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me thank the Senator for Kitui County for bringing this Petition. Indeed, pending bills is a big issue in this country. This morning, we were looking at the report of the Controller of Budget, and at the end of June 2017, Kshs108 billion is supposed to be outstanding pending bills. There is no reason at all for this amount of pending bills because counties get their money and it is only that they do not plan properly. In fact, there is a lot of misapplication. What we have realized is that when counties do their budget, it looks okay but mid-way, a lot of supplementary budgets are done and the money is misapplied. We have seen this and we will take it upon ourselves. In fact, we need the help of the whole House, because as we go ahead, we want to engage the Controller of Budget. We wonder how fast are bills released to counties---."
