    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to move that the County Allocation of Revenue Bill (Senate Bills No.7 of 2020) be now Read a Second Time. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the annual allocation to counties is based on the provisions of the Division of Revenue Act (DORA) as required by Section 191(3) of the Public Finance Management Act, 2012. The Division of Revenue Act, 2020 gives a total allocation of Kshs369.8 billion to county governments for the Financial Year 2020/2021. The allocation of Kshs369.8 billion is an aggregate of the following- (1) Equitable share of Kshs316.5 billion as set out in the First Schedule of the Bill; (2) Conditional allocation from the national Government share of Kshs23.16 billion as indicated in the Second Schedule; and, (3) Conditional allocation as loans and grants from development partners of Kshs30.2 billion as indicated in the Third Schedule. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the First Schedule of the Bill sets the allocation of each county government’s equitable share of revenue raised nationally in the Financial Year 2020/2021. The Second Schedule of the Bill sets out the six conditions for allocation to the counties from the share of national Government revenue for the Financial Year 2020/2021. This constitutes a total of Kshs23.1 billion, including Kshs9 billion from the Roads Maintenance Levy Board Fund. The six conditional allocations to the county governments are: (i) Leasing of medical equipment of Kshs6.05 billion has increased to Kshs6.2 billion allocated in the financial year 2019/2020. (ii) Level 5 hospitals of Kshs4.33billion."
