• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker. I need your direction on a matter concerning the Office of the Controller of Budget. This afternoon, I tabled the Office of the Controller of Budget Half-Year County Governments Budget Implementation Review Report for the Financial Year 2014/2015. I have done this in the last two years. This is based on Article 228 (4)-(6) of the Constitution, which says:- “228(4) The Controller of Budget shall oversee the implementation of the budgets of the national and county governments by authorising withdrawals from public funds under Articles 204, 206 and 207. view
• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: (5) The Controller shall not approve any withdrawal from a public fund unless satisfied that the withdrawal is authorised by law. view

• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: (6) Every four months, the Controller shall submit to each House of Parliament, a report on the implementation of the budgets of the national and county governments.” In the last two years, I have done this and this is in line with the Constitution and the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act, 2012. This House has, in my opinion, become a conveyor belt that does not scrutinise documents which are tabled before it. If you look at the one I have tabled today, it has very critical information on the locally collected revenue by every county, its expenditure, funds released or ... view

• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Speaker. The Leader of the Majority Party has raised a very important issue, which requires very close attention. I happen to be one of the persons who have deeply interrogated the reports of the last quarter. I can tell you that it was extremely difficult to get any piece of information to support whatever is written in that report. I want to give an example of my own county, where it is alleged that Kshs290 million was used on the construction of roads in that particular quarter. Being the people who oversee these issues, we ... view

• 1 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: When I sought an explanation and further information at the county level, there was nothing available. I asked in the Office of the Controller of Budget and there was no information. The Leader of the Majority Party has pointed to the right direction, that this Report must be committed to the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade. Those of us who have queries should be given adequate time in terms of sharing and sitting before the Controller of Budget, who must be able to produce evidence of every piece of expenditure that is written in that Report.
