    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support this Bill. I think this country has come a long way from the days of a single party to the days of a central Government and now we are transiting to a devolved system of Government. It is important for every Kenyan and institution to appreciate that there is the need and that we must change with the times. I want to thank the Minister for Finance for having appreciated the position of this House on its determination to ensure that devolved Government takes off and takes off well. We went through a negotiation and we agreed that the revenue allocation to the counties be enhanced and we took cognizance of the fact that in as much as the overall budget framework was done under a central Government, it was clear that at some point in the financial year this Government was going to be dual in terms of the national Government and the county Government."
