    "content": "I would like to say that the County Governments Additional Allocations Bill is an important Bill. You may remember that in the old days, the National Treasury used to give counties money in form of conditional grants, but now Parliament has come up with the idea of County Governments Additional Allocations Bill. This is in line with the aspirations to enhance devolution in this country. There is a misconception that is going on that the National Assembly is anti-devolution. There is no person with a sane mind who can oppose devolution. This is the only avenue we have that takes billions of shillings to the places where people live. Today, some counties in the country would not have seen money from the national Government in form of a billion if it were not for devolution. Previously, they never saw money because they used to be in the budgeting system of the centralised system of the Government. Hon. Temporary Speaker, you are old enough to know that. They used to be told that their money had been put to security to defend them from enemies and other things. They never saw any development money in their lives."
