"content": " Hon. Senators, Article 215 of the Constitution of Kenya establishes the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA). The principle function of the CRA is to make recommendations concerning the basis for the equitable sharing of revenue raised nationally, between the national and county governments. Additionally, the commission determines, publishes and regularly reviews the policy in which it sets out the criteria by which marginalized areas are identified. Hon. Senators, by a letter received in the office of the Clerk of the Senate Ref. No.CRA/CSO/P&S 2 Volume 223 dated 15th March, 2018; the CRA invites the Senate to a consultative meeting to deliberate on the Draft Second Generation Policy Identifying Marginalized Areas in Kenya. The meeting is scheduled to be held on Thursday 17th May, 2018 at the Senate Chamber from 8.30 a.m. to 10.00 a.m. Hon. Senators may wish to note that this meeting was scheduled to be held at an earlier date, but was postponed to enable the commission hold discussions with the Senate Standing Committee on Finance and Budget first. All Hon. Senators are encouraged to attend and participate in the deliberations. Kindly also note that immediately after the meeting with the CRA, we shall meet with the Liaison Group (Health Insurance Brokers) on medical scheme issues. I thank you. 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."
