    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, when Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale talks about what the President said, he must be referring to media reports. The Constitution says that when the President makes a decision, he puts it in writing. Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale has not tabled in this House anything written by the President which says that all functions shall be decentralized immediately. What we know and what we have been informed by the Cabinet Secretary for Devolution and Planning is that the President expressed his intention and readiness to devolve these functions, even all of them, when and if directed by request from counties or by the relevant institution which is the Transition Authority (TA). So, it is not correct to say that the President said that all functions are going to counties immediately. It is however correct to say that the President has expressed his willingness and intention that all those functions be devolved if the counties request and if the Transition Authority gives an okay."
