"content": "My apologies. I have a cold. That notwithstanding, I will continue. The established functions of sub-county boards will ensure access to budgetary allocation benefits intended institutions directly, as opposed to people selecting certain institutions based on monitoring and evaluation done on which institution requires a budget. At the same time, it would also be easier for the area Member of Parliament, who will be an ex-officio member of the Board, to consume timely information on how schools are running. It is important for all of us to acknowledge that sometimes, it is difficult even for a Member of Parliament to know what is happening in every corner of a constituency. When a Member of Parliament sits on a board, it would be easy to consume information and understand the glaring gaps to address in a constituency. I urge the House to support this important Bill. Once passed, we will reap the fruits of devolution fully. Thank you."
