12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly:
Appropriations Committee has reduced the budget ceilings of a number of Commissions and Government Departments. The Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) wanted Kshs5 billion. I want to assure my friend, hon. Washington Jakoyo Midiwo who came late that we fought for Kshs3 billion but we secured Kshs1billion. So, we are not badly off. Your war has borne some fruits. There were some dividends but please, next time, do not say that the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee was preaching. He is a very good preacher, but he is also a very good debater. I can confirm that fact.

11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, I totally agree with you in one way. The process that led to the tabling of the Budget Policy Statement (BPS) is provided for in the Constitution and in the Standing Orders where Committees of this House and the National Treasury engaged for weeks and they came up with this Report. Hon. Speaker, the only controversial item following the uproar hon. Washington brought yesterday--- It is different from the many other amendments hon. (Eng.) Gumbo is bringing. I agree with you that it is going to be over Kshs8 billion. Let me read the Constitution because this House ...

I want hon. Jakoyo to listen to me. Somebody must provide evidence when he says that a Committee of this House has allocated itself Kshs3 billion. There is Kshs3 billion for public hearing.Yes, in my opinion, that is provided for in the Constitution, unless we do not want to follow it. Article 221 (5) says:- “In discussing and reviewing the estimates, the committee shall seek representations from the public and the recommendations shall be taken into account when the committee makes its recommendations to the National Assembly.”

11 Mar 2015 in National Assembly:
since yesterday is not very good. Why am I saying so? Maybe, this House should have asked the Budget and Appropriations Committee that. That is because if you did public participation, then you should have attached, as provided for under Article 221(5) of the Constitution, the Kshs3 billion as annexure for projects based on the public participation and show us the rationale. That annexure will be the basis on which the National Treasury will have the leeway to say that “we can do that this year”. Hon. Speaker, if the money for public participation will not be allocated this year, ...

Relax, hon. Jakoyo! You will have your day. You had the whole of yesterday. Two, if the bone of contention is this Kshs3 billion, then the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee should be given an opportunity to list and give us the areas they feel, following public participation, this Kshs3 billion will be earmarked for. Finally, hon. Speaker, you said it yesterday and I want to repeat it that what we are dealing with is BPS. What will come to this House are the Estimates on whose basis this House is going to produce the Appropriations Bill. As ...
