    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. has stolen some of my ideas and so, I will emphasize some of the issues. I wish to comment on the issue of audited revenue. The audited accounts must be fast-tracked because it is giving distorted figures in terms of what is sharable. I am saying this because the sharable revenue right now is Kshs1.7 trillion. On the other hand, if you look at the basis for the Equitable Revenue Share Allocation, it reads 33.6 per cent. I want to clarify that this is not real. If the revenue was audited on time, the figure would be 18.69 per cent of what counties are getting, which is Kshs314 billion. In terms of Equitable Share, 14 counties were supposed to receive funding. However, what has been spent so far is only Kshs1 billion. It is only fair that the initial Kshs12.1 billion that was allocated should first be spent in the 14 counties, before this money is subjected to other counties and changing of the law, because this not fair. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
