I will just make two points. The most important point is that public participation was undertaken and proof of that was provided to the Committee. Advertisements were done in the media and conducted in compliance with Sections 5 and 5A of the Statutory Instruments Act. Point number two is that the Committee was persuaded that setting numerical figures to the debt ceiling is better for accountability than putting the GDP, because Kenya is an oil- producing country."}
