    "content": "The issue of gross total revenue and fees collected is now then being highlighted. Madam Temporary Speaker, unfortunately, the regimes have not been able to identify what has been collected at the counties, how it should be apportioned, where it should all go to and how it should be distributed. It is very tricky. It is not mentioned in this Bill but as it goes to the Committee, these are some of the issues to think about. Issues of own source revenue and where that money goes to and how can that money be further distributed. I find that in most legislation when we are talking about these sort of benefits and how they should be appropriated, most of the time we talk about a percentage that should go out but how should this percentage be handled? Is it going to be collected nationally and then redistributed? Is it going to be collected at the county level and taken to the national level for redistribution? This is a specific area that Sen. Mwaruma is trying to say that a certain percentage of these resources and revenue collected be left to be used at source. The mother Act, the key Act and the Principal Act already puts into place in each of the counties the Community Wildlife Conservation Committee. Madam Temporary Speaker, my time is up and I support this Bill. I hope through this Bill, we will be able to address the issue of human life and wildlife conflict and deal with some of the resolutions that may be put in this amendment. Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker."
