    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. I wish to also support this Bill, but hopefully, I intend to bring some amendments. I have reservations on what has been mentioned by others, but I want to expand on it. In 1965, through the Sessional Paper No.10, somebody decided that there are areas with potential and defined what that is; if I remember correctly, it was areas with tarmac roads, good rainfall and people who accept development. From that statement that was passed in this august House, the people of the ASAL areas and northern Kenya suffered for over 50 years. In this Bill, somebody is introducing something called âharmlessâ and basically the explanation given is that you do not have the capacity. These others have this capacity and have been having it and so, your money will be chopped off, they will continue having it and you will not have it. The Commission on Revenue Allocation is the constitutionally mandated Commission that recommends what budget each of the Government institutions should get. For the executive, which is the National Treasury, to decide and introduce other columns into the way the revenue should be divided, namely, introducing referral, provincial and Level 5 hospitals, is not in the formula for dividing revenue. Also introducing leather money is not in the formula. With those three things alone, they remove Kshs31 billion which was to be shared by the counties. The other thing that this Bill seems to do is to hold the tradition where the Treasury decides what goes to the counties. This will kill devolution. We need to amend those issues. The Bill also says that those people who try to challenge the different levels, because there is inter-government dispute resolution mechanism and go to court and the court finds that they should go back to the mechanism, that individual governor or county"
