    "content": "leaders in this House, this is what we are faced with as an ongoing concern and I believe it is the thinking behind the Uwezo Fund. The President admits that it has actually been delayed. This House spent considerable time in debating and coming up with the relevant regulations. This House needs to expand that so that it ceases to be a one-time event. We recognize in the same principles of 2002 that a special fund be created or enhanced to be able to encompass and assist people. This opportunity is in the constituencies at a level of Kshs.690 million per year. This will do much to improve the opportunities, money circulation, development, and reduce the socio-economic impacts associated with security. I want to thank the President on this account. With regard to devolution, the biggest argument which has been going back and forth is about the percentage being increased to around 45 per cent. The current allocation is 32 per cent of Kshs.210 billion. It shows that if we allocate a further Kshs.2 billion, the money will go a long way in assisting. This is because we shall have even surpassed the 45 per cent threshold being called upon. We will get this nation to work so that we grow this economy in double digits. I thank you for that time, hon. Deputy Speaker."
