    "content": "Having listened to many Members in this House as well as during the proceedings of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, it is clear that anything to do with resources in our country is such an emotive issue, especially when we talk about money. The issue of the Equalisation Fund is very clear. If you think about areas which have been marginalised for a long time, they come up on top of your mind. It is important to agree that there are pockets of other counties that have been marginalised for one reason or another. However, there are counties which have been marginalised in totality, not just one location or sub-location. There are counties where all their three, four or six constituencies have been marginalised. That is different from a situation where we have to look for a small marginalised location somewhere within a constituency to ensure that such constituency benefits from the Equalisation Fund."
