Thank you so much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I do not want to belabour on the issue of the Supplementary Budget, but from my experience and training, supplementaries are done only to relook at budgets. It used to be done in February and only once in a financial year. But this Supplementary Budget we are going through now has come because of a habit we have formed for the last three years.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, for this opportunity. I thank the Government for allocating Kshs10 billion for senior citizens affairs in the last financial year.

Hon. Speaker, I also support the confirmation of the board members. However, at the same time, I would like to request the Chair to give us the status of the disbursement of the funds.

We would like the money to be disbursed so that we can carry on with the projects that had been earmarked for the funds.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I also oppose that change. We have experienced much neglect. That is why the Constitution has given us an opportunity to get more resources to bring us slightly to the level where other counties are.
