    "content": " Hon. Chairman, the people of Luanda Constituency are interested in this one. Because those are TVET institutions, we need clear criteria on how funds are allocated to different constituencies. My constituency, Luanda, was one of the very first constituencies that set aside land and Kshs10 million. That was one of the requirements for allocation to build them. But my understanding is that these allocations are done willy-nilly outside the Ministry of Education. I have been asking these questions many times in this House, and I have never been lucky to receive a response from the Ministry of Education on how they do the actual allocation and distribution of those resources. We need that list to come to this House with a clear definition of the constituencies and counties that have received those funds. We need an explanation why Luanda has been excluded up to this point. In passing these sums – and that is why I was opposing the reduction of even Kshs1 from this vote – I am hopeful, and so are the people of Luanda Constituency that we will receive our allocation this time. I hope that out of this Kshs17 billion that we shall be giving this Ministry The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
