    "content": "We had budgeted for Ksh4.7 billion that was to go to industrial and aggregation centers. The essence of this was to allocate Ksh100 million to each of the 47 counties. Being a responsible Government and a responsible Committee, we saw it fit not to have multi-tier projects. It is better to have few that will have a turn-around period of, say, one year maximum. Therefore, we scaled down these aggregation centres from 47 to 18 thereby enhancing the amount accorded to each from Ksh100 million to Ksh250 million. Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I wish to make it clear to this House that all the 18 have already budgeted for the Ksh250 million which is counterpart. The way these aggregation centres are being implemented is that the national Government gives half of the money and the counties give half of the money or matches a shilling per shilling. The essence of this amendment is to reduce the aggregation centres from the initially budgeted 47 to 18 so that we are able to implement an entire aggregation centre within one financial year. All the others that are not going to benefit in this financial year’s allocation are all assured to get the same amount of Ksh250 million in the next financial year."
