    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there is another problem in the National Treasury which we are also asking the Cabinet Secretary to look at. For a very long time, the National Treasury keeps on giving excuses when it comes to remittances of 20 per cent royalties back to the counties. It becomes very difficult for Taita Taveta, Kwale and Tana River counties to access monies that are supposed to come from royalties. The same applies to Kilifi County. These are coastal counties that have mineral resources. The National Treasury continuously creates a hurdle after another even when we have passed it here in the Senate. We are saying that the 20 per cent mineral royalty share must go back, but they create hurdles and make it difficult for the counties to access funds."
