He is the former Minister for Finance and, therefore, I expect him to come out with a very valid basis on which this figure was determined. Why was it not Kshs10 million or Kshs20 million or Kshs500, 000?

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Motion. I want to congratulate the Minister for the able manner in which he presented this Budget and in particular, how he was able to balance various competing interests that the Ministry faces at this time.
