• 14 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also want to acknowledge what the hon. Member has said; that, indeed, that section of the road is impassable, but we have taken adequate measures. We already have got the estimates for that road and we will be able to allocate enough funds to ensure that it is passable, so that produce from Mau Narok and Narok can get to the markets in Nakuru and Molo. view
• 29 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. The rates mentioned in the Question of 22 per cent and 10 per cent for the allocation of the Fuel Levy Funds to constituencies became effective in December, 2009 following the enactment of the Kenya Roads Act, 2007. The budgeting process for the fuel levy was completed before the commencement of the Financial Year 2009/2010 and prior to the amendment of the Kenya Roads Board Act by the Finance Act of December, 2009. Thereafter, the Board in accordance with the Kenya Roads Board Act of 1999 as amended by the Kenya Roads Act, ... view
• 29 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to proceed. The portion of 12 per cent for the districts had been released by December 2009 to address the critical challenge of road maintenance following the rains.

• 29 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think the hon. Member has acknowledged that the amendment was in December, 2009. The financial year had already begun and money had already been disbursed. We could not reverse a process that had already begun. Therefore, we will be able to reflect that in the coming financial year. view
• 29 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Kenya Roads Board (KRB) sits every year immediately after the Budget to disburse the funds. By the time we got to December, the money had already been disbursed to the Kenya Rural Roads Authority for further disbursement to the constituencies and districts. Therefore, the money had already been disbursed and I can table the records, if the hon. Member requires that. view

But the Question that had been asked by the hon. Member is to provide details of the allocation and not the criteria for the allocation. I have provided details of the allocation. view

• 29 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Chairman of the CDF Committee has just confirmed that the law was passed in December, 2009. The financial year began in June last year. The meetings between my Ministry and the Committee were in respect to the 22 per cent and not the 12 per cent. Therefore, by the time we spoke, we had already disbursed the funds. We can lay the facts on the Table of the House. Lastly, I want to say that the issue that the hon. Member has talked about is specific to the criteria; why one district gets a certain amount ... view
