• 16 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the House. It has been a long and tedious journey to come to this day today. I have lost weight and I am sure we can now all rest. However, I would like to assure this House that all the measures that we proposed in the Budget and in all other pronouncements are meant for the wider public good and to make this country a better country for all to thrive from the small to the big. It is also meant to make the environment for doing business better. I would ... view

• 9 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) In 2006/2007 Financial Year, a total of Kshs253,562,677,910 and Kshs85,687,177,989 was issued from the Consolidated Fund for Recurrent and Development Expenditure against the estimated amount of Kshs259,478,413,670 and Kshs103,868,700,980 respectively.

• 9 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have 33 Ministries and we could as well have 33 different reasons why each of them have returned their money.

We are moving towards programme budgeting and I indicated that when I was moving the Appropriation Bill and discussing this year's Budget, which will now be synchronised better in terms of when the activities will take place and when the monies ... view
• 9 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, the Treasury can only release money after it has received it. We collect our money on a monthly basis and we release it on quarterly basis. But, in most occasions, we also release it on monthly basis, as and when, funds are available. It is a matter of 4398 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES October 9, 2007 matching the two. I believe that the main reason for the return of this money is, probably, the way the commitment and procurement process is made. We will continue monitoring them to reduce the gap. As hon. Members will observe, out of the Recurrent ... view
