Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, from various reallocations in different departmental committees, we had a bit of savings. This is one of the few issues that we got from the savings in the allocations. I will be mentioning them as we go on. Therefore, there is no other department within the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology that is losing that money.

I did not get what the Member for Kibwezi East said. Did she say there is no saving?

The roads budget was deficient of, I think, initially Kshs18 billion. We will be speaking to that when we reach there. But I can assure the Member that the savings were reallocations within the National Treasury and not any of the other departments. They were savings within the National Treasury.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move: THAT, the proposed allocation under the Programme in respect of Recurrent Estimates, the figure Kshs85,406,547,019 be deleted and substituted thereof with the figure of Kshs84,606,547,019 and, THAT, the proposed allocation under the Programme in respect of Development Estimates, the figure Kshs12,740,500,000 be deleted and substituted thereof with the figure of Kshs13,140,500,000. This relates to a number of our public universities. Again, following consultation with the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Education and Research, we had to get about Kshs800 million. From the Recurrent Expenditure of the University of Nairobi, we got ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. As has been clarified by former Chair of the Committee on Education and Research, indeed, I can confirm the UoN has a Recurrent Expenditure budget of Kshs11.3 billion. Kenyatta University has Kshs10.6 billion allocated for Recurrent Expenditure and Moi University has Kshs8.228 billion. More importantly, there is an issue that has been raised on the cost. Of course, the Leader of the Minority Party has to be very protective of UNES since he worked there. The former Chair of the Education Committee, Hon. Sabina Chege, has just confirmed that, indeed, other than not just ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move: THAT, the proposed allocation under the Programme in respect of Development Estimates, the figure Kshs34,210,758,552 be deleted and substituted thereof with the figure Kshs30,410,758,552. Hon. Temporary Chairlady, this is a reduction of Kshs3.8 billion.

Treasury had tabled a figure of almost Kshs8.7 billion which was grossly overstated. Therefore, that is to make that correction to reflect what is in line with whatever is provided for in the Constitution of 0.5 per cent of the last audited and approved accounts. It is a challenge to the Public Accounts Committee. I hope the Chair is here.

Yes. The Members of the Committee including the Chair are here. It is a challenge to the Vice Chair of PAC to ensure that he tables the last audited accounts. If they can get to the accounts of the Financial Year 2016/2017, have them tabled and approved by this House, then those Members who are benefitting from the Equalisation Fund will access more money since our revenues will rise. If we can have the ones for 2017/2018 approved and adopted in this House, that will ensure that more resources go to the Equalisation Fund to ensure that those from marginalised ...
