"content": "agencies of the national Government that do many things, yet no significant impact is seen by the people of this country. In the 10 years of devolution, the budget for the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries and Irrigation in the National Government has kept increasing, while the function is devolved at 95 percent. Up to this date, I wonder what these funds are doing when the residual function that has remained in the national Government is policy issue. Why should the National Assembly allocate billions of money to that Ministry, which is handling a function that is already devolved? In order to deal with this issue of drought and famine firmly and in a manner that is sustainable, we should direct all these funds that are lying in national Government agencies such as Regional Development Authorities and many parastatals to county governments."
