    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I agree with you that the Chairs of Committees become more active during the Budget Estimates with demands for money. You ask them where we will get more money to give them because we are Members of Parliament just like them. Instead of coming during BPS, they run away. Instead of engaging the National Treasury during that time, they run away. Then during the Budget Estimates when the figures have come out, they say: “We need irrigation here. We need money here. We have come to beg the Committee to give us Kshs2 billion more.” That is the kind of language they use. Where do Ichung’wah, Mbadi and the rest of the Members of the Budget and Appropriations Committee get Kshs2 billion to give you? Let us take our work seriously."
