    "content": "It will be good if the Senate - and I hope that they will see sense - also support this Motion. The governors also should see sense, sit down with the National Government and say that they should be given functions when they are ready. I am also going to request our brothers in the Senate to become friendly to the health sector. It may have been mentioned here that the Budget and Appropriations Committee allocated about Kshs3.7 billion for the Level 5 hospitals and ring-fenced that particular fund for the health sector. The money was given to the Governors to do as they please. There is now an attempt to say: “The national Government, please, deal with the health sector”. I think that is not being friendly to devolution and especially the health sector. I am requesting my sister not to play politics with the citizenry of this country. I support this Bill. And, please, it is good for you before you say that you are opposing this and bashing devolution, to read the Report and understand it. The Report is not doing that; rather it is supporting devolution."
