"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I want to support this Motion and register only one small concern. The Chairman of the Committee could have helped us by analysing these figures a little bit. When you look at each respective county, you do not see why a county is given a particular amount in a particular month. At the very best, when you look at it, this seems to be done arbitrarily. I will give you an example of my own county of Kakamega. We are being told that for the month of August, Kakamega received Kshs553 million which is the equitable share and Kshs26.4 million for level five hospitals. When you move on to the following month, you will see that the same allocation is repeated. In the next month, this figure jumps to Kshs651 million and the level five hospitals amount goes to Kshs31 million. The following month, the figure goes down. The figure goes up and comes down. Is it possible that the Government is spending money arbitrarily? We need to interrogate them next time, in the Committee, so that they justify."
