    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, sometimes early this year, CBK was on record as having said that there was excess inflow of money into the country to the tune of about Kshs164 billion. Going through the Economic Survey, 2010, I have noted that under the Ministry of Agriculture, this country produced 27.1 million bags of maize and also imported 16.8 million bags of maize. That is a total of 43 million bags of maize. The domestic requirement for maize is about 33 million bags of maize. That means that we had an excess of 11 million bags of maize. Could the Assistant Minister confirm or deny that, that apparent trade in maize was one of the sources of the excess money that flowed into this country? What is he doing to ensure that we promote productivity rather than this merchandise economy?"
