    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in passing resolutions in the UN or African Union, it takes a whole year or two years, just to get a resolution through. Why these stages of bureaucracies that have been set up? So, in this country, we will have limited resources. The County Governments are going to have limited resources. The National Government, we all know, we have very little money for the Development Vote. All the money is going to the Recurrent Vote. In order to cut that Vote, I will urge the Minister that we collapse these functions. If the President is chairing the Summit, and if he is too busy, the Deputy President is chairing, and if he is too busy, the Governor who has been elected under the Governors forum, is chairing, we will have a meeting that is fruitful or a meeting that gives decisions. A meeting that makes the Presidents to interact and feel the Governors; not a meeting of the Summit, where decisions have already been made at another level, and they are merely coming, then we have a ceremony, we have the President walking in, Deputy President walking in, and then ceremonies, speeches, and then they go, without true consultations. I propose that we relook at this. If the Minister can collapse these functions into the Summit, so that when the Summit meets with very useful decision making proposal."
