"content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, in supporting this Bill, I wish to make three points. The first one is, part of the reason there was an increase in the allocation of the counties was because an additional service was given to them, and that is the library services. This to me is a big milestone because the development of libraries around the country has not been as robust as it should have been. Many counties do not have libraries and now that the counties have been given money to start these libraries, we hope that they do not go and re-allocate these money for other purposes which are more familiar to them. It is very important that we establish a reading culture for our country and these libraries that should be started in the counties, should be digital libraries in addition to the traditional libraries. We hope that this will pave way for the country to also ensure that museums are eventually devolved so that each county can have a reserve of its pride and knowledge. It is a very encouraging thing and I hope that our great county of Narok will be able to, first of all, implement this issue of libraries and build a big library, hopefully in Kilgoris."
