Hon. Chairman, I can confirm. The Leader of the Majority Party is perfectly in order. I can confirm that the amendments I am moving are contained in a letter Reference No.ES1/07/02B (36) dated 24th April 2020 signed by the Cabinet Secretary, Ukur Yattani.

There might be a difference. But for you and my Vice-Chair who attended a school named after somebody, namely, Moi High School Kabarak, there might be a difference in how you arrange words. For those of us who went to Alliance High School, there is a big difference.

In respect of Vote 1166 which is State Department for Fisheries, Aquaculture and the Blue Economy, this is counterpart funding. Ksh620 million had been left out, which is additional counterpart funding from the Government of Kenya to supplement donor funding to this very important Fisheries, Aquaculture and Blue Economy. We appreciate that with the challenges that we have with COVID-19 pandemic, aquaculture and blue economy will be key drivers of our economy because people can work in the lakes and ocean with social distancing with small boats and fish and supplement our food production by fishing.

I am sure that the Chair of the Committee is here. They had taken this money that had already been expended through Article 223 of the Constitution. Therefore, it was not possible to reallocate it.
