    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to support this Bill. This Bill is very important because it is discussing CDF. We all know that CDF as a development model is actually one of the best in the world. I always get very surprised when I see some Kenyans who want to oppose this important development model. I have taken time to read through this Bill and there are a number of important issues which we should note as Kenyans. Looking at Section 4, there is the issue of how the money is shared. After the division of Revenue Act, there is always money which goes to the national Government and money which goes to the county government. The CDF money will come from the share of national Government. In that case, it is not interfering with the amount going to the county governments. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Clauses 4 and 51 put a lot of emphasis on accountability of the Fund. Whatever funds are received through the CDF must be fully accounted for. Clause 51 provides for serious penalties for those who misappropriate funds. This The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
