    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I also rise to support the Motion. I thank the Senate Majority Leader for bringing this Motion of Adjournment. I support this because of two reasons: It is very important for the Senators and MCAs to meet and discuss their achievements of the last four years. It is also very important to discuss this because we are representing the people of this country. I was so shocked during the devolution conference that 81 per cent goes to recurrent expenditure and only 19 per cent goes to development. I mean, this money that comes to the Consolidated Fund in the national Government that is later divided or given back to the county Government is for the citizens of this country. It is really important for us, as Senators, to sit and have a meeting with the relevant authority to discuss the challenges, opportunities or what we can do as leaders or representatives of the people for this country. I believe that all the Senators will have time to attend to this important meeting. With those few remarks, I support."
