    "content": "When the Bill came from the National Assembly, the principal aspect which we are agreeing with in the Second Reading really is the division between the national Government and the county governments. So, in a way, we had already agreed on the Kshs799 billion on the basis that we shall have time to renegotiate and get the proper formula. Mr. Chairman, Sir, I would like to persuade everybody in this House that I will be number one myself to make sure that whatever steps we take, in future, to make sure that the funds we would like to go to the counties actually go there; to get an arbitrary figure like Kshs226 billion, to me, I think it is totally unacceptable. Mr. Chairman, Sir, what we are requesting for the three counties is that, please, bring us at least to the level where we have a House to step in. Our county assembly is now operating in a Church premise. The Governor’s office is house on top of a building. A few Members here have been to Nyandarua and they can bear me witness. Mr. Chairman, Sir, with those few words, I beg to move."
