"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to second this Motion. It is a very important document that we get here in the Senate and are given the chance to read through and get to understand the operations of things in terms of budget implementation and the overall fiscal health of our county governments. It is important to encourage my fellow colleagues Senators, to spend time with so much keen attention to detail and read this properly prepared document. If you read through, it will give you a proper understanding of the status of devolution both at National level - because that is important to you, as a Senator - and also at specific county levels. It will tell what is happening in your county and whether the funds that you are fighting so hard to be allocated are being put to prudent use or they are being mismanaged and enriching only a few at the expense of many taxpayers. Mr. Speaker, Sir, of great concern to me as I read through this document is the very glaring decline that has been captured by the Office of the Controller of Budget that the aggregate raised by county governments that is their own county revenue collection, The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes"
