The National Assembly is on the spot for approving new multibillion-shilling projects despite older ones stalling after running into financial headwinds.
The nod by members is against a warning by the Parliamentary Budget Office (PBO) that stalled initiatives continue to tie up public resources while adding little or no value to economic development of the country.
In its budget watch for 2019/20 and the medium-term report, PBO says 40 new projects to be financed entirely by the exchequer were approved and allocated Sh1.2 billion by the National Assembly for the period under review.
