On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. With all due respect, is it in order for the hon. Member to contribute without reading what the amendment is all about? It is talking about the President or Deputy President! It is not talking about the Speaker!

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, with all due respect to the Committee, I would like to oppose this amendment. I thought putting a percentage would take care of the decrease in value of the amounts in future, so that it is pegged to a percentage. As the economy grows, the Contingency Fund would also grow. The Kshs10 billion may look handsome today but in five to ten years time, it may be insufficient to meet contingencies.

It does not have to be a so serious course. Just do something to show us that you are serious with life. Let us allow those who will be representatives in the county assemblies be people who are serious with life.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, even though I agree that in positions of leadership we need to go to school, let us not legislate and then regret later. I think it is important to observe that this decision we are just about to make will lock out a good number of Kenyans from seeking positions of leadership.
