    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, some of the issues to be addressed by the big four agenda are devolved functions. Housing and agriculture are devolved. There is no collaboration between the national Government and the county governments in this BPS in addressing the big four agenda. It is mere talk and nothing more. Look at the kind of funds that they have devolved to counties. It is an increment of 4 per cent against an inflation rate of 7 per cent. That means that county governments cannot provide services as they did in the last financial year. The inflation rate is 7 per cent and the amount of money they have been given is a 4 per cent increment. Majority of services have been devolved to the counties. Here you are telling me that we will cover most of the big four agenda. Aspects of the big four agenda are domiciled in counties. If you want to achieve the big four agenda, you must devolve more funds to the counties. That is the easiest way you can achieve the big four agenda in this country."
