    "content": "Hon. Members, I am sure you are all aware about the process that we are engaged in and more specifically, I would like to read to you, Hon. Junet, the provisions of Article 221 of the Constitution on Budget Estimates and Annual Appropriations Bill, which says: “At least two months before the end of each financial year, the Cabinet Secretary responsible for finance shall submit to the National Assembly estimates of the revenue and expenditure of the national Government for the next financial year to be tabled in the National Assembly”. Your own Article 93 is also very clear. It says: “ (1) There is established the Parliament of Kenya, which shall consist of the National Assembly and the Senate”. That is Parliament. In this one, the Constitution is very clear. It says: “… National Assembly estimates of the revenue and expenditure of the national Government for the next financial year to be tabled in the National Assembly.” The Constitution further states that the Assembly shall consider the estimates again, submitted under Clause 1 together with the estimates submitted by the Parliamentary Service Commission and the Chief Registrar of the Judiciary under Article 127 and 173 respectively."
