    "content": "How will we ensure that there is a structured way of engaging in oversight? The MCAs should be advised that in future, they should be careful, because they carry out primary oversight, but they are busy being used by the governors to fight the Senators. That is not in good faith, because we should be complementary to each other. I do not know whether the funds should be there or not, but as a House, we need to become innovative. I should be able to walk to Kapsabet County Referral Hospital and Nandi County Creameries and know the funder, get the documents that I want as the Senator and look at them, so that when we appear before the Senate or when we are doing our own stuff--- Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, finally is on the issue that has been raised by--- I can see that is still have time. Maybe I have a minute. I have heard them alluding to the fact that the BBI would have increased the disbursements. The same people have failed to disburse at least 15 per cent.

It does not mean that the Government can give only 15 per cent, it says “at least.” Therefore, the Government can give us the goodwill and the necessary percentage. Since the BBI is dead as a dodo, we can now focus on pushing the Government to move to more than 15 per cent in future. I advise Sen. M. Kajwang’ that he should not be canvassing issues that are alive and active in a court of law. Those issues will be canvassed. He should not be canvassing like President Uhuru Kenyatta---"
