    "content": " Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, two weeks ago, I said that there is an emerging trend of content creators in the House, instead of legislators. People want to do things for the gallery, but know very well that is not where the solution lies. Sen. Cherarkey, I would have wished to help with the UHC challenge that we have, but you know for a fact that the solution lies in the National Assembly. All UHC staff are calling for is the budgeting of their allocation for their salaries and absorption into the counties. Unfortunately, this is not the budget-making House. In the Division of Revenue Bill, we only consider resources that are divided vertically between the two levels of Government. The final solution lies with our colleagues in the National Assembly. Today, when the UHC staff were outside here in the Senate, I sent a Serjeant-at- Arms to whisper to them that this is the wrong gate. The right gate to demonstrate is where they are now, because they are presently before the National Assembly. So, is it in order for Sen. Cherarkey to mislead UHC staff that their solution lies in the leadership of yours truly and I do not know which other Senator, while he knows for a fact that our powers are limited to the Division of Revenue Bill with regards to county allocation only?"
