    "content": "To start with, there is no substantial increase to counties. I say this without fear of contradiction. What this Bill has just done is to convert the four existing conditional grants to counties into unconditional grants by allocating to their respective amounts totalling to about Ksh17 billion in this current financial year. Which ones are these? This is the Road Maintenance Levy, the Level 5 hospitals, the compensation for the user fees foregone and this is the money that is supposed to go to rehabilitate the village polytechnics. So, if you look at that, there is no substantial increase that has been given to counties. The Bill has just converted conditional grants. What is the implication of doing that? The implication is that it is going to affect counties and that a number of projects will remain incomplete and they will stall."
