    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I will provide evidence when we come to the Estimates, that even the choice of the counties to conduct public participation and the constituencies in all those counties are discriminated. In fact, if a Member of the Budget and Appropriations Committee comes from a county where it is a beneficiary - and I will give a very good example like Wajir County which you visited last year - already there is a serious problem there. So, even this money for public participation is not exclusive for the Budget and Appropriations Committee to decide. If we have to speak from the heart, we will do so. As I support, I really want to pose one moral question: Do you want to have money on paper or you want to maintain your ceiling? What was the ceiling for the Judiciary for last year? If it was Kshs18 billion point something, let us maintain the ceiling for Parliament. If it was Kshs39 billion point something, let us maintain it. Yes, let us maintain it and then we will not be in a catch 22 situation within the reading of Section 39 of the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act. I really want to ask, as I conclude - and the Chair knows I have more experience… You can further amend. You can further amend your amendment."
