    "content": " Mr. Deputy, Speaker, Sir, in responding to the question by Sen. Tabitha Mutinda, my Ministry handed over public libraries to 33 counties. However, there is a need to upgrade the existing services to fit into the envisaged county government status and people’s expectations. Since library is a devolved function, the Ministry did submit a proposal to the IGRTC for onward submission to the Summit for consideration of allocation of a ring- fenced conditional grant to facilitate establishment of libraries in the 14 counties without public libraries. On the disbursement, Kshs435 million was released to 33 counties which we handed over public libraries to because it is clear that money follows function."
