    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, as mentioned, the Chairman of the Standing Committee on Finance, Commerce and Economic Affairs has requested that I move this Motion on his behalf. I, therefore, beg to move: THAT, pursuant to the provisions of Section 17 (7) of the Public Finance Management Act, the Senate adopts the report of the Standing Committee on Finance, Commerce and Economic Affairs on the County Government Cash Disbursement Schedule for Fiscal Year 2013/2014. The document that has been distributed to the hon. Senators is with regard to the money that has been distributed to the counties as at August. If the hon. Senators were to look at the Schedules that have been given to them, they will note that there is a plan that has been given to us by the Treasury to show how that money is supposed to be distributed, and the money that is currently going to the counties. Madam Temporary Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.206 and Section 17 of the Public Finance Management Act, the said Committee considered the County Government Cash Disbursement Schedule and noted that the Schedule has been prepared in accordance with the Revenue Sharing Formula approved by Parliament. The Committee further noted that the Schedule was prepared and submitted to the Senate pursuant to the provisions of Section 17(6) of the Public Finance Management Act as amended by Section 14 of the County Allocation of Revenue Act, 2013. The Committee also noted that the Schedule was submitted to the Office of the Clerk on 29th August, 2013 a day that the Senate was still in recess and thus the Cash Disbursement Schedule could not be laid on the Table of the Senate. The Committee, therefore, requests the Senate to consider the County Government Cash Disbursement Schedule in accordance with Section 17(7) of the Public Finance Management Act, 2012. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
