    "content": "Mr. Chairman, Sir, I want to support the amendment. I want Senators to appreciate what we are trying to do. There have been concerns and all Senators are aware that county assemblies have been spending huge amounts of money on very unnecessary expenditure like travel and allowances. They have really been living large. This matter has been raised in the quarterly report by the Controller of Budget. We have seen this in the reports by the Controller and Auditor-General. We have also seen extensive reports in the media and complaints by everyone that these guys are spending a lot of money. Therefore, the CRA, the Controller of Budget and other institutions, a few weeks, ago, sought to come up with some ceiling which says that out of the money; the Kshs226 billion that will go to the county governments, in the workings, the cost of administration came to Kshs30 billion. This is for payroll, allowances and other O&M. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
