• 19 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: The BPS 2014/2015, the medium term as I have said, was submitted to the National Assembly on 14th February, 2014.

• 19 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Members, just by way of clarifying on the link between the Budget and Appropriations Committee, the Budget Policy Statement (BPS), Division of Revenue, County Allocation and Revenue Bill and also the 2014/2015 Estimates, I may just indicate the following; that the Report of my Committee on Budget Policy Statement will recommend to this House – and this is important to note - the ceiling for the Judiciary, the ceiling for Parliament - both Chambers - and the rest of the National Government. It will, therefore, set the vertical division of revenue. This is important because thereby, it will be ... view

This communication has been shared with the respective Committee Clerks. view
• 5 Dec 2013 in National Assembly: Yes I do! And I thank you for giving me the opportunity. I just wish to mention to hon Member for Tiaty and this honourable House, that we had a meeting with the Cabinet Secretary Treasury as the Budget Committee two days ago. And not for the first time.
