"content": "Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. I think we are getting emotional about this issue and for good reason. This issue of the Equalization Fund has been with the Senate in the last term and is with this Senate now. If there is a matter for which Senators must fully engage, it is on the Equalization Fund. For the last 11 years, counties have been waiting for it to be rolled out. When it is being rolled out, we must have the final word on who would sit on that Board to represent the interests of counties. I do not know what is happening today. In the morning sitting there was a problem with the tabling of the Report on the NHIF Bill. Now I am being told it is an oversight. That is a very serious oversight. Now we are having another problem with another report on representation in the Equilization Fund Board Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I invite you to put your foot on the ground and demand that due process be followed. This Report must be tabled and we must be given time to read, understand, internalize and then debate. I do not know why Members have a problem with debate. Members should be able to ventilate, discuss, disagree and agree."
