    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, once those systems are adopted across our counties, we will know the counties that are doing well in revenue collection, those where plundering is taking place and those where resources collected from citizens are used prudently for the welfare of the people. I hope this Bill will have punitive measures to ensure that those not using the system well or those deliberately looking for ways of evading the system are penalised. I hope the penalties will be hefty to deter others from doing so and those affected should face the full force of the law. As I conclude, I suggest that those counties that would have done well in revenue collections, that is, those that will have adopted the systems well and enhanced their revenue collections should be rewarded, while those which are not keen on using the system to collect revenue because of other reasons – because they will be stealing from the wananchi - should be penalised. So, we should have a carrot-and-stick system where people are rewarded and others penalised. Counties should be ranked and rewarded on the basis of how well they have performed in terms of revenue collection."
