    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to start by thanking the Members for their contributions and particularly for their support of the nine very qualified and excellent Kenyans who have succeeded in becoming the team to spearhead devolution. As you can see from the report, diversity, gender, marginalization and all the other factors that we should take into account any time we form an Authority or a Commission or any other team have been taken into account. The only thing that I want to appeal to the Executive and particularly to the Minister for Finance is to facilitate this Authority effectively. This Authority had been allocated only Kshs200 million. It is through the Budget Committee that we increased that by Kshs100 million. Even Kshs300 million for the enormous task that is to be carried out by this Authority is not enough. We should be looking for Kshs2 billion or Kshs3 billion, so that the Authority can do the work that it is required to do. With those few remarks, I congratulate the nine Kenyans who have been chosen and the Members who have contributed to the Motion. I want to assure hon. Ruto that these Kenyans have passion, equal to the passion I have of becoming the Governor for Nyandarua County. I beg to move."
