Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I rise to support this. We have, for a long time, seen Parliament being blackmailed or even just being agitated to “unless you pass this Finance Bill, the Estimates which you passed earlier will not suffice or be raised. Therefore, the Government shall not work”.

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Though I am limited I thought I should add my voice on this. The amendment brought by the Leader of the Majority Party is very key.

associated with colonisation and the struggle for Independence. During the struggle for Independence and colonization, boundaries that were drawn to demarcate countries and specifically Kenya did not take into account the interests of different people who were there. At the time, the people who fought for Independence did not even know that certain areas of Kenya were part of Kenya. Therefore, they did not have a chance of inviting them to the business of getting Independence. That is how they lost out. That is why they deliberately made them peripheral and marginalised. At the time of drafting the Constitution, the ...

This is a good Bill which should be supported. The House should stand with it so that we bring those areas up. It will actually eliminate insecurity and other deplorable things we hear from those areas. With those many remarks, I thank you for giving me this opportunity. I support.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the onset, this is a good Bill. It was moved when I was here and the target group is very clear, which is from 1st July 1984 to 1st January 2001. When you look at this team of
