    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, if my friend Sen. Chute had applied himself to the question, he would understand that I was answering a question: Could the Cabinet Secretary state the distance in kilometres of tarmacked roads the national Government has constructed and then list the ones in Tana River? Had I not done so, I would not have responded to the question. If he followed my response, he would have appreciated. You cannot say 442 kilometres, even if equally distributed, would have been assumed to be a share of Tana River is a fair distribution. I have said that the principle of equity demands that you treat every area differently. The northern part of the country must be treated as per the distance. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I sat in this House for months, weeks and days discussing about the County Allocation of Revenue Formula. We had a passionate debate. Some were saying that you do not discuss the distance of counties when you are allocating resources."
