    "content": "Hon. Speaker, there is the issue of the conditional grants. Those grants were given to the county governments in the last Budget and they were specifically for Level 5 hospitals. But, unfortunately, many of those governors did not take that money to those hospitals. Those hospitals did not see a dime of that money and yet, the services are deteriorating. I asked myself later on what informed the Leader of the Majority in the current Budget to do away with conditional grants? This is because conditional grants are conditional. We are able to follow up and ask the county governments what they did with the conditional grant for Hospital “X”. Where did they take that money which was meant for Hospital “Y”? The county governors can do anything they want with that money without anybody following up because we do not know whether it is a conditional grant or not. However, when there is a conditional grant, we can be able to ask: “Where is the money for this hospital?” Up to now, I still do not understand what informed the Leader of the Majority Party to move an amendment to remove conditional grants."
