    "content": "Mr. Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT the Bill be amended by inserting the following new clause immediately after clause 10— Amendment of paragraph 12 11A. Paragraph 12 of the Second Schedule to the Public Finance Management Act of the Second Schedule to is amended by deleting the expression “2014/15” appearing after the words “and in the Public Finance the” and substituting therefor the expression “2015/16”. Management Act. Mr. Chairman, Sir, what the Public Finance Management Act now requires is programme-based budgeting, effective from 2014/2015. What we are requesting is that, that effective date for programme-based budgeting be pushed to 2015/2016. It is going to be difficult for the county governments because of the delay in the approval of the Division of Revenue Bill and County Allocation of Revenue Bill. We have discussed with the Treasury and they also find it okay. So, the only thing that we are doing is pushing it to the next financial year. That is the amendment that is being proposed here."
