Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Whereas I share with Kenyans the heavy situation of lack of petroleum products in the country, all of us should come together and think of what to do. Today, I wish to speak as someone who has been in the industry. At this moment, economists have to come back on the drawing table and think of how the country is going to manage itself. Hon. Speaker, whereas we are addressing the current prices today, in the next reading, we forecast a situation where fuel prices are likely to go up, by as high as Ksh30 per ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to support the Report on the mediated version of the County Government Additional Allocation Bill (Senate Bill No. 35 of 2021). The main issue here is allowing the flow of funds. Once the funds have been allocated in the budget, they should flow as quickly as possible. What is obstructing the fund is a small issue. Grants that come from either the Government or from foreign governments should be allocated properly so that they support the main budget that would have been allocated through the Division of Revenue Allocation Bill to the county governments. ...

This Bill is going to lessen the heavy shocks that exist in the country today.

Those trading with Ministries and Semi-Autonomous Government Agencies (SAGAs) say there is no money. Once there is no money in Government, it means generally that the private ...

The amount that is being proposed in this Bill is the Kshs4.9 billion that is going to the NG-CDF. We are towards the end of our term and it is important that all the pledges made are achieved by all our colleagues notwithstanding those who will come back and those who will not. It is important that they fulfil what they pledged to the constituents and it is good that the amount is put in the Budget.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Standing Order No.91 provides that a Member should be held liable for the information that he commits or communicates to us. Can the Member confirm that through his information, they have bugged State House and, therefore, it is in danger? Is he insinuating that people can hear what goes on in State House, which is House No.1, and inform others what the President is discussing? Can he confirm to the nation that the President of Kenya is not safe wherever he is? Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The electronic version of the Official ...
