    "content": "cocktail of membership is that the county is the theatre for all development. Be it the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF), the County Revenue Fund (CRF) and the Consolidated Fund. Today the CRF holds about 15 per cent of national revenues. The NG-CDF and the National Government Affirmative Action Fund collectively and probably hold three to four per cent whereas the Consolidated Fund remains with the 80 per cent. We had the President recently give a directive that Level Four Hospitals be established across the country, yet this is a purely county function. How then does the County Commissioner of Homa Bay County go round identifying where to build those hospitals without involving the governor? The agenda of the County Leaders Forum will be to ensure that we get rid of those overlaps. The first agenda is to determine issues of engagement between the national and county governments and propose a common legislative and development agenda. I have given the example of the health facilities. Any governor who allows someone from Afya House in Nairobi to build a hospital in their county without concurrence, consultation and inter-governmental agreements will be a weakling because the lines and responsibilities are clearly drawn."
