"content": "Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, the national Government share includes some Kshs3.4 billion which is a special grant to the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) for free medical healthcare to be disbursed as reimbursements. The variation of county equity share from Kshs291.14 billion to Kshs314.6 billion is as a result of consultations with key stakeholders including the National Treasury, the Commission for Revenue Allocation (CRA) and the Council of Governors (CoG); and further taking into account the inflation rate on shareable revenue growth rate. In addition, some Kshs12.5 billion under loans and grants in the Bill, the National Treasury has secured a grant of Kshs5.5 billion from the Kenya Devolution Support Programme (KDSP) for universal healthcare projects, instruments for devolution advice and support and the national agriculture and rural inclusive growth projects. Therefore, the import of the amendment is basically to increase the amount of money allocated by the National Assembly and raise it so that we can then discuss the matter but hopefully, there will be no need for mediation because the National Assembly will accept the amendment."
