State House and the offices of Deputy President Kithure Kindiki and Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi have been allocated an extra Sh5 billion for salaries, travel and entertainment amid a push for austerity in government.

The additional expenditure is part of the extra Sh85.8 billion that the Treasury requires for the fiscal year ending June through a supplementary budget tabled in Parliament yesterday.
