Kuria Kimani","speaker":null,"content":" Hon. Temporary Chairman, I would like to give comfort to my Senior, Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu, that this particular provision is not creating additional funds. He has been one of the Members in this House who has been very vocal on the need to rethink the many funds we have in this country. As we speak, KRA collects taxes on behalf of the Government. This money is banked at the Central Bank of Kenya, but for KRA to expense on the approved expenditures, they have to rely on the Exchequer, just like all the other entities. We have seen situations where even the medical insurance for the staff of the Authority have been cancelled because they have not been able to pay on time. Therefore, we are creating a ring-fence that will enhance their Appropriations-in-Aid (A-in-A), so that they can have some leeway even when there are delays from the Exchequer and they are able to move forward."},{"id":1586375,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1586375/?format=json","text_counter":782,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Hon.

Temporary Chairman, in as much as I support the ring-fencing of some money so that we can be a little more efficient, I am just concerned that this is a creation of a new expenditure.
