    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I support the Motion by the Senate Majority Leader on the alteration of the calendar. The devolution conference is an important event for us in the Senate because it all about taking stock on devolution, positive achievements, where there are shortcomings and if there are any legislative action that we may need to take. We need to attend and get all that. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the past conferences, the governors have been running the show. This time we need to get involved as much as possible so that we contribute to this conference. We need to add value to the assessments, which are being done and see how devolution is impacting the life of Kenyans Devolution is the main gain we got from the Constitution of Kenya 2010. It is supposed to go as low as possible to even the village level. I know of counties which have not even reached that level because they do not have village units and they have challenges. We need to know what their problems are because we are supposed to devolve both resources and decision making as low as possible to the people on the ground. That is what we need to evaluate and see what the problems are. I support this Motion and hope that we will make use of that time. I thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
