"content": "“For assisting three counties namely Nyandarua, Tharaka Nithi and Tana River (Who did not inherit any premises from the former local authorities or provincial administration that could be used for headquarters to start developing their own headquarter facilities, Kshs400 million each.) Mr. Chairman, Sir, during the earlier debate before we came to the Committee Stage, we had gone through and we all expressed, including myself, the sentiments that whether we are giving Kshs226 billion or Kshs238 billion, it is still not enough for what should be going to the counties. The fact that this House last year looked at the amount of money which should be going to the counties and, if nothing else, to uplift those counties who are less endowed and also facilitate the counties which have got facilities to run. However, when it comes to premises, even with a House like this; if you had the House of Senate and you do not have premises at all, even with that Equalization Fund we are talking about, it means you are starting from very far. For that reason, I would wish to persuade my friends on the other side, not to vote “no”."
