Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, in closing, it is my sincere wish that we honour our young men and women. As it has been said before by my colleagues, when we go to a town like Eldoret, which is home to some of the best and fastest athletes in the world, we have no training grounds that are commensurate with the kind of talent that we can develop there.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if the hon. Member wants to me say that Kshs60 million is not sufficient, I hereby say so and actually admit that we would look for more money.
