    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Motion. I will have another opportunity to congratulate you and the Deputy Speaker. However, I stand to support this particular Motion on County Government Cash Disbursement Schedule. This is a very important Motion. After the County Revenue Allocation Bill was approved as mentioned by the Majority Leader, it should have been disbursed in the last Senate but because of the elections, it was not done. We are in September, three months after the financial year and counties are starving. Therefore, it is important that these monies actually go to the counties. I am surprised that our colleagues from the other side are not here to take part in this important event. I pity them. I hope that they will come to their senses and as we go ahead, they will be taking part in the deliberations of the House so that they can represent their people effectively. This Bill is important and the counties should realise that the requirement for this House to pass the disbursement is an indication that the Senators are cognizant of how counties are being managed. We hope that these funds will be put to proper use."
