• 18 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware funds due to Nyando District under the 10 per cent roads maintenance levy portion of the financial year 2009/2010 as approved by the Kenya Roads Board was reduced from Kshs18 million to Kshs5.6 million. Indeed, this deduction affected the entire country and not only the district in question. The deduction was inevitable since the Budget for 2009/2010 was prepared in the preceding financial year, 2008/2009, and it had not factored in the Kenya Rural Roads Authority’s operational costs.

Member, I wish to state that we have started the procurement process. As the hon. Member knows, it takes quite some time before you see the actual work on the ground. We have taken the matter seriously. I know it is about the approach roads on the bridge. Before long, they will be able to see action on the ground. view
• 18 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I hope I was understood. I said that in the Financial Year 2009/2010, we had already started spending the money from the Roads Maintenance Fund before the law was amended. Previously, we used to disburse the funds equitably. After the law was amended in December, 2009, we changed that to equal disbursement. This means that money had already been sent. We could, therefore, only give what had actually remained. I would like to remind the hon. Member that it is during the same year that these particular authorities were started. Therefore, the start-up cost was, of ... view
