Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I will be very brief. At this time, we are affected in this country by religious fundamentalism. The institution that is most affected is the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology. We should not, therefore, condone this practice. We should ask everybody in this country to promote interfaith co-operation. Thank you.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I have said before in this House that we are a body of professionals. When we get the inputs of professionals like Dr. Pukose, Prof. Nyikal and Dr. Murgor, we are obliged to follow their line of thinking. The Motion is quite noble, but the proposed amendment by Dr. Pukose makes it more noble in terms of practical implementation of the provisions of the Motion. I second.

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I wish to support. At the outset, this country has adopted a programme-based Budget. As such the roles of the line ministries and the respective committees of Parliament in terms of the Budget preparation are very cardinal. The role of the National Treasury is basically facilitative and we should not see it as the Lord Ministry. We want to regard it as the Ministry that facilitates the process of Budget making. In terms of the increase beyond the required 10 per cent, I want to support especially on the account of State Department of Agriculture. ...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. As I support and congratulate the Committee for doing a good job, I am an extremely worried man when I look at such Reports. I am worried if the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) which is the country’s last bank and keeper of foreign resources has not been audited since 2010. That is a great worry.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, although I was interrupted, I would wish to say that when you get State corporations like Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) inflating a tender by 74 per cent, then things are not right in this country. I saw in President Uhuru Kenyatta the markings of a great man some time back. I still believe that President Uhuru Kenyatta will be a great man for this country but that will depend on how he can fight corruption and streamline affairs in State corporations.

We have talked about Mumias Sugar Company. That institution was brought down deliberately by people that we keep on seeing on television screens of our country. I will reserve my comments on Mumias Sugar Company until when the report of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Cooperatives is brought to this House. That is when we will say that although it is good to give Mumias Sugar Company a bailout of Kshs1billion, those people who looted it must be brought to justice.
