Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) This is the Third Reading and I want also to commend the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. Having said that, it is good to put the record straight now that we have passed the Appropriation Bill. We have just appropriated Ksh24 billion...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Speaker, the line reads “stabilisation”. As I said, very well, the Stabilisation Fund is supposed to come from the Petroleum Development Fund. It is not supposed to come from the money we are appropriating here. We have appropriated Ksh24 billion in the...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon Temporary Chairman, we are dealing with a supplementary budget and not the main Budget of June/July. The Ksh8 billion is not small money. Can the Chairperson be clear on what the increment entails? He cannot just talk about Ewaso Ng’iro South and North...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Chairman, this House should be serious.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) How can we reduce money from the transport sector? The other day, the roof at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport was leaking. Where will they get money to repair it if not from us? Tuwache hizi aibu ndogo ndogo. Let us give these people money....

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Chairman, you see there is a reduction of Ksh13 billion in urban development and housing. They promised to build many markets all over the country through the urban development vote. Does this mean that there is nothing that is going to happen?...

I want to hear what the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations 16th November 2023 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 45 Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM)Committee is saying because a supplementary budget is supposed to...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Temporary Chairman, I bring this to the attention of the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. The budget is adding Ksh834,000,000 only.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Cabinet Secretary, what was the rationale used? In his initial answer, he said that he used the 2019 Census, but this must be a census that was conducted by the National Treasury a month or two ago. We have the data of the 2019...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, the document that the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury and Economic Planning presented today on the KRA recruitment is a classic example of what is called the animal farm. In the animal farm, all animals are equal, but some are more equal...

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) It is the recruitment of KRA revenue service assistants raised by Hon. Mugo, the Member for Mathioya. That matter is very important to the nation.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, I seek your indulgence on a matter that is before the House.

Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM) Hon. Speaker, if you have listened carefully to the Cabinet Secretary, one of the things that has come out clearly is that a lot of theory is 27th September 2023 NATIONAL ASSEMBLY DEBATES 15 Hon. Junet Mohamed (Suna East, ODM)killing our economy. He said...
