Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I support what the Chairperson of the Committee on Implementation has put across.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I think it is not in order for Hon. Junet to misinform the House about a subsidy for which there is no line. The Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee is here. Why is he insinuating that there is a subsidy...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Hon. Temporary Speaker, I rise to support this Report by the Budget and Appropriations Committee.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Hon. Temporary Chairman, Thika Town is within Kiambu County, which has more secondary schools than Nairobi County. Look at the population of Nairobi County. I know that Thika Town and other metropolitan areas are also facing the same challenges, but they can be assisted by...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I support what the Chairperson of the Budget and Appropriations Committee has done. Nairobi County currently does not have enough secondary schools. The county cannot accommodate the current number of secondary school students. It relies on neighbouring counties and other...

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman.

Hon. Julius Melly (Tinderet, UDA) I think as the Chairperson of the Budget and Appropriations Committee has said, it is a net increment of Ksh5 billion. So, there is no reduction. In fact, this sector got an increment and not a reduction. (Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo spoke off the record)
