• 1 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the wish of the Committee or any Member is to have this money as early as possible in the financial year. But you remember and also know about the process of National Treasury collections and the KRA collections. By the time they assemble the money to give, it is usually past November.
