    "content": "Let me now come to the two formulas. I want to address the CRA formula and the committee formula. It is unfair for us to sit in this House and our Committee on Finance and Budget, which is supposed to protect our interests, is giving us less money than what CRA is giving us. I want to demonstrate that. The CRA tried to look at these two parameters: The parameter of economic disparity and the parameter of affirmative action. They tried to help the small counties. I know some of the big counties lost, but we would have gotten a clear balance, so that we are not disenfranchised by our committee. If you look at the report by the Committee, they have conveniently left out the simulation based on the CRA formula. If you look at the simulation for CRA, Elgeyo- Marakwet County was getting Kshs392 million on top of what they are getting. The Committee is giving them Kshs241 million. So, they are losing over Kshs150 million. Embu County is losing on the CRA formula. The Committee gave them Kshs256 million, and they are getting Kshs85 million, but that is just one county. The most serious effect is on Sen. Dullo's county of Isiolo. The Committee is giving Isiolo Kshs257 million and CRA is giving Isiolo Kshs137 million. The Committee gave Lamu Kshs177 million---"
