    "content": "Generally, this is a good amendment Bill and we need to support it. However, I have made a number of observations. One of the key observations that was stated is that there is a disconnect between the budget cycle and the point that we are signing these agreements. As a House, we need to urge Treasury which provides leadership in signing these agreements with our development partners, to ensure that since they also oversee the budget cycle timelines, they should ensure that the two processes are harmonized, so that any time they sign agreements with the development partners, the timing is right and they do not have to amend it every year. While we appreciate what we are doing now, it is important that in future, Treasury harmonizes that process so that when we pass the County Allocation of Revenue (Amendment) it will move on."
