    "content": "intention here was to save Kshs9 billion that would have been used on travel and other expenses would have been retained at the counties so that they can use it for development. That was the intention and is still the intention. However, this time in the first year, the basis for the determination of the ceiling was not very accurate because it was the first year, then I think they should appreciate that this year they have had an opportunity where they can give their inputs. They have had two days sitting with the Committee on Revenue Allocation (CRA), all the county clerks and the speakers, going through the figures that were proposed, so that later on they cannot say that they were just given some money arbitrarily. That arbitrariness has been removed. There is now a serious basis for determining how much money goes to an assembly. We want them to deliver. In this Report, we have made sure that no assembly should shut down for lack of resources. So, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I beg to move and ask Sen. Elachi, who I am certain is a Member of my Committee, to Second this Motion."
