"content": "Jubilee and CORD or political parties. The loyalty pledge is that there is no honour among thieves. Mr. Speaker, Sir, one Act of Parliament that was signed into law but we do not take seriously is the Controller of Budget Act. That Act was passed and assented to by His Excellency the President without our input. The Controller of Budget is the one who continuously approves misapplication and misappropriation of funds. She is now giving counties money using regulations as opposed to the Act. Therefore, as we move forward, I have two proposals. You have proposed that we have a Legislative Summit which is not the Governors’ Summit. We will not attend the Governors’ Summit. First, as a Senate, we should form a special Directorate for Petitions. Secondly, we had requested that a list of pending petitions be presented here to enable us show the public what we have done. Lastly, there is one infamous governor who came to the Senate hand in hand with the Chairman of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC). That is an unholy marriage between a governor and the auditors of the county. In that Legislative Summit, the Chairperson of the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget and the Chairperson of the County Public Accounts and Investments Committee (CPAIC) should have a session with our counterpart committees in the county assemblies. They should advise them not to have this unholy marriage where they come holding the hands of governors to the Senate---"
