• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: That is a good question. Maybe a Minister can respond to Mr. Cheruiyot, but the understanding of the Chair is that--- Of course, the relevant line Ministry will have more information than another Ministry.

Minister to accuse this House of pretending and not discharging its duties, when he has started with Article 221(4) and stopped there, instead of proceeding to Article 221 (5) that says that after the submissions have been made, the Budget Committee will go out there and take into account what they heard from the public and further make recommendations after.
