    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I want to agree that the spirit with which hon. Mungatana brought this amendment is okay, but the wording here, I want to assure the Members, particularly those who think that they come from marginalized counties, that if we leave it this way, it can cut both ways. Suppose we guarantee a loan to hon. Mungatana’s county and yet there is another project that has come there that is also required to spur the same economic growth that he is talking about, are we saying that we cannot do it the second time just because we had done it before? Secondly, I want to pick up from where hon. Kioni stopped; that we should not make a law that seems to discourage counties which are perceived to have potential for revenue generation. This has been done in a way that it discourages those counties that have potential to generate revenue. So, there has to be a balance. I hope the negotiated amendments will address the issues."
