"content": "Most obliged Hon. Speaker. I think I need an apology from my good brother. My take on this is, I want to thank whoever noted the error. I think it was well explained by Hon. Cecily Mbarire. She explained what happened. There was an error that was noted and I think it is good. We should pass this Motion. Look at the areas it is affecting, one is the health sector which is very important. Two, agriculture and I come from agricultural area and the other one is devolution. I believe that we should pass this Motion as amended which was by error passed in the 11th Parliament and ensure that funds are taken to the counties. My take on this is that the counties now are employing executives and Cabinet Secretaries there. We hope and pray that these monies will be used properly because the temptation is; some of the counties are employing their cronies who may not be qualified to appropriate these funds properly. We and particularly the Senate should be able to look at some of this allocation which may be misused and reallocated to other functions that are not key in those areas. I support this amendment and I think we should pass it this afternoon so that the funds can be taken to the counties. I have been to the rural areas and I think the counties are suffering. They are not moving yet there is a lot of money. We should pass this as soon as possible."
