In the statement, the Senate Majority Leader should do the following: 1) Explain in details, the process followed in having approved funds released to county assemblies to meet their respective budgetary obligations. 2) Explain the respective roles played by the clerks of county assemblies, the county treasury and the Controller of Budget in withdrawing money from the Country Revenue Fund as required by Article 207 of the Constitution of the republic and Section 109 of the Public Finance Management Act.
