Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the Assistant Minister for the answer he has given. I have also had occasion to look at this report. The purpose of the procurement law and procedures is to encourage efficiency and ensure there is value for money for the procurement entity.

have been awarded illegally. The illegality does not only pertain to the procurement entity but the supplier or the contractor who is also supposed to look at compliance of the procurement laws. This project involves Kshs120 million which is membersâ money. That money is being invested in a project that will be a white elephant.
