    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, based on the proceedings of this conference, it was clear that all the Government projects should be frozen six months to elections. There should be no new Government projects six months to elections. This is because part of the challenge we have with some of the pending bills not being verifiable, is because they were issued close to elections. This must have been certainly to finance the would-be officials who were running for office. That has caused a huge tax burden. We are currently looking at pending bills totaling to Kshs150 billion, some of which have been verified but not yet payable. Over and above all, some of the pending bills had not been paid because of the request for kickbacks by the various actors who are involved in procurement."
