On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I have an answer here. This Question is about the livelihoods of people in Garba-Tulla which has been undermined through lack of allocation of resources. This Ministry drops an answer here and does not take the lives of people in Garba Tula seriously. I beg that you take serious action against this Ministry.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as you can see, these are various irrigation schemes. Rapsu, Kinna, Malka-Daka and Gafarsa are irrigation schemes around the Ewaso Nyiro North Belt. They have been allocated Kshs3 million in the financial year 2009/2010 and we know what the prices of materials are in this country. Is the Minister satisfied that there is fairness in allocation of this Kshs3 million? Does she expect that some meaningful work will be done?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, although the Minister says that the National Irrigation Board has entered into consultancy with the Sintex Consultants to further improve and regulate expanded agriculture this year. Six months have already lapsed and I have not seen this consultant anywhere in my constituency. Could she tell this House exactly what this consultant is expected to do and the timeframe, because half of the year has already lapsed?

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. You heard the Minister just before this saying that the Kshs1.2 billion that the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance mentioned here had not been factored in the Printed Estimates of his Ministry. Since this House cannot be taken for a ride, since Kenyans cannot be taken for a ride, will I be in order then to request you to direct the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance to come here and explain why he told everybody including this House and the public at large that he is ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this Motion. First and foremost, looking at the membership of this Tribunal you will agree with me that they are eminent persons in this country, of various disciplines and professions. The retired Justice Akiwumi is a renowned High Court Judge with vast experience. We have other members who are known like Mr. Namasake, who is a human resource expert, particularly when it comes to job evaluation and salary matters. I have no doubt that they made a positive contribution to this Report. No wonder this is a good report. Mr. Temporary ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, with all this put together, as the salaries improve, plus improved terms and conditions of service of Members of Parliament--- You very well know that when you were in the Seventh or Eighth Parliament, there was no independence of this House. Everybody used to rush to some place either in Harambee House or State House to be supported to go home for the weekend. That is not befitting of representatives of the people.
