On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. Hon. Keynan has said he deals with… I want the Commissioner to listen to me, he has just said and gone on record that he is a man of empirical figures. I want to confirm and go on record that he is taking this House for a ride. I want him and the Chair of Budget and Appropriations Committee to explain to us, if in this Budget there is Kshs.500 million allocated to the Senate Monitoring and Evaluation. Tell us, if you are a man of facts.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The Irrigation Bill is in the Senate and once it is concluded… I know they usually take between six months to one year to conclude a Bill and I hope they are watching me. If they finish…In as far as irrigation is concerned in Kenya, this is a big joke. We have big rivers in this country and a lot of flooding. We need to build big dams and use irrigation for food security. The State Department for Irrigation cannot account for Kshs.17 billion. We have been told about Galana Kulalu Irrigation Scheme which ...

Last month, we were victims of flooding and even a simple technology of haversting water is an issue in this country. We are talking about giving a lot of money and holding a blue economy conference in November yet, we are allocating less than Kshs.3 billion to the fishing industry. I mean we are not serious. The Executive must up its game and we must invest and get value. I am happy today because the Chair of Public Accounts Committee is seated here. We will need quarterly reports from the State Departments which committees oversee to know how much money ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, you know I moved a Procedural Motion on how the Committee of Supply will be conducted and that Motion was adopted and that in every vote, we have 30 minutes if the House wants to discuss. In the event there is nobody who is ready to speak to that vote, then you can rush putting the Question. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, you know, I wanted to comment that part of this money must be used in doing research for camels and its diseases. Hon. Kanini Kega wanted to speak about coffee and if there is any research for that. Now we have agreed with you, but moving forward, give those who want to speak an opportunity.

13 Jun 2018 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee must declare interest. We cannot use the budget of the country to pay some dowry and do family business. It is very sad. If it was in the US Senate, somebody would have resigned. Hon. Ichung’wah must make full disclosure. Now, we have found out that the budget-making process has been extended outside the premises of Parliament where a Member is exchanging a daughter to the Chair for favours. We want to know how much she has been allocated.

13 Jun 2018 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, this is a very important budget line for social security for the elderly who we represent in this House. I hope the Cabinet Secretary and the Permanent Secretary in charge of Labour are watching me. You can steal but you cannot steal from the elderly. This money is being stolen. I want to go on record. The actual beneficiaries do not get their money. They pass through a very bureaucratic system where there are chiefs and social workers involved. This is one of the biggest achievements of the Jubilee administration because they gave an insurance policy ...
