Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Assistant Minister tell us about the stock theft in Kisumu Town East? I keep repeating it and the Assistant Minister sometimes makes a joke of it but it is something serious. He has promised several times that he is going to look into it. Could he now, seriously tell Kenyans in Kisumu Town East what he is going to do about the stock theft there?

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. This can no longer go on as a joke. It is okay one or two times but this is the third time and I think it is abuse of privilege. We have stock theft in Kajulu East, Kolwa, Kamorongo and Kindu. There is also an Officer Commanding Police Division (OCPD) who can give us the figures.

They are not chicken thieves! I think we have to be serious. Why is it that when it comes to Kisumu, you talk about chicken and fish thieves? I take this very seriously. This is a very serious august House and please, do not take this as a joke.

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. As much as I am agreeing here, I just do not understand why we are now discussing something that was discussed when the first Appropriations Bill was before us. All that is happening right now is correction of the Supplementary Bill. We do not need to open up a discussion on the Budget. So, I am asking you to, please, put the Question.

On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I apologize for interrupting the hon. Member, but there is a great deal of interest in this Motion and there are quite a number of hon. Members who would like to contribute to this Motion. I would like to urge you to, perhaps, consider reducing the time to two minutes?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to remind the Assistant Minister that the basic minimum plans for the construction of a Government Chemist will cost Kshs60 million. The Kshs15 million is just not enough to start it. So, I do not think the answer that the Assistant Minister has given to us is suitable. I am the Chairman of the New Nyanza General Hospital and I know that, that plot is available to you. However, if the Government Chemist does not move fast enough, the New Nyanza General Hospital will take that plot back. So, please, could you confirm ...

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. My question is not really related to the main Question. However, could the Minister tell us what he is doing with regard to about 30 children and their mothers who have been detained in Ward 3A at the Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) since January, 2009? This is the case and yet they should have been released immediately they were treated. Could the Minister assist those children and their mothers and the hospital treats their case as bad debt? Many of the patients owed the KNH about Kshs10,000, but now, their stay in the hospital ...
