    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I had more kind words for you. It is unfortunate that we will have you for a maximum of two years, courtesy of the new Constitution. I want to say that the Ministry of State for Planning, National Development and Vision 2030 is the brain and the eye of this nation. As far as development is concerned, we need to really give it adequate funding, so that we can have direction in this country. The second thing I want to say is the credibility of the data. I must emphasise here that in the past we have seen information, or data, that gives us certain indications. Previously there was data that showed that Nyanza was very poor; that was before the CDF came. After CDF came Nyanza has now become very rich. There was a time when Kisumu had the highest prevalence rate of HIV/AIDS. After the funds came in it was elsewhere. This really undermines the credibility of the information that we get from the Kenya Bureau of Statistics. It is important that we have credible information. Last but not least, this information, particularly in this era of the new Constitution, we really need real time information that is updated annually. I want to urge the Ministry to strive to see to it that this information is online, so that we can access it from anywhere. I beg to support."
