    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The point of order by Sen. Olekina is neither here nor there. I understand what he is saying because of the pressure on the exchequer. What I am talking about is what is allocated. If this Government wants to give Kshs474 billion from Kshs3 trillion budget, they can realign the national Government budget. What the Members of Parliament do not know because they talk about the National Government-Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) being put there, it will be less. When you remove 35 per cent which is a percentage of that, add 70 counties you are dividing a smaller amount by many more. We support for the sake of our counties to get enough money.

With BBI plus the formula we are going to The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
