    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the County Allocation of Revenue Bill that is before the House. I support it on two issues. One is on the revenues given across the counties. County functions are supposed to be done. Even as we support, I encourage the CRA on one thing. It should ensure there is adequate funding and resources for monies budgeted for by counties and are given to the services counties are supposed to provide according to Schedule 4 of the Constitution. That is so that those functions benefit the common mwananchi . When the Constitution provided for two levels of government—the national government and county governments—it was so that county governments can reach people in mashinani . Therefore, some functions like healthcare and water need to be adequately funded because that is where the common mwananchi can access services. Therefore, we need counties to ensure the functions are financed properly."
