    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, with your indulgence, I stand here on a matter that I raised on the Floor of the Senate on 14th May, 2013 regarding the Equalisation Fund. On 21st May, 2013, a Communication from the Chair directed that the Departmental Committee on Devolved Government responds to the matter in two weeks time. Again, on 17th June, 2013, I reminded the House of your Communication that the matter be reported by the Committee in two week’s time. However, as of 17th June, 2013, it had not been done. On that day, because the Chair was out of the country, two colleagues hon. Senators, Sen. Nobwola and Sen. Wangari gave an undertaking, on behalf of the Committee, that in two week’s time they would be in a position to lay the report on the matter on the Table of this House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, today, 2nd July, 2013, to the best of my knowledge, no report has been laid with regard to the matter that I had raised and which is very important because it concerns the allocation of revenue under the Equalisation Fund to marginalized counties. Could I seek your further direction on this matter because it has taken a very long time?"
