    "content": "the census should come out sooner and sooner must be sooner so that the image that we have of the Ministry, that stigma is really cleared. On the issue of the new districts, we have noted that the Ministry has made very strong efforts in providing District Development Officers. However, they do not have offices, vehicles and support staff. Therefore, it is important this Ministry would have been given more funds by the Treasury to meet the expected services. I note with appreciation that the Ministry intends to buy 100 vehicles. These vehicles must be equitably distributed to all the regions in this country. The distribution should not favour a section of this country. On the issue of the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF), the Fund has really boosted development in this country. It has also created employment for our youth. Therefore, continued enhancement of this facility will be very important so that the idle youth in this country are really diverted from unnecessary evils in terms of taking alcohol and even smoking, and at times, they are not able to render any credible service in our areas. Regarding the development funds, the Minister has indicated as being attracted to development partners. We would urge the Minister to make sure that fairness, justice and equity is employed. We noted that some funds will be diverted and taken to Nyanza Province. We should be hearing of Rift Valley, North Eastern Province and Lari in particular. We also note that the Ministry has continued to enhance the image of this nation with international--- With those few remarks, I beg to support."
