Unfortunately, 82 of you have indicated desire to contribute. Even as we contribute, Hon. Members, it is not lost on us that Article 96(3) of the Constitution provides that the Senate determines the allocation of national revenue to the counties and exercises oversight over national revenue allocated to the counties. This is what you call horizontal allocation through the County Allocation of Revenue Bill. If they exercise oversight over national revenue allocated to the counties, it means that in as much as this House exercises oversight over all State organs, unless you devise another mechanism, we would find ourselves doing the same job that, perhaps, others are doing. We cannot do that unless we are sure that nobody is doing what you may want to do."
