    "content": "Wamunyinyi comes from is very big. You cannot compare it with another constituency which only has two or three wards. We should look at it. I ask Members to change that formula because it is not workable. The issue of delays has caused a lot of uncertainty out there in the constituencies. Even members of the public do not understand why some of the projects that were started have not been completed. For example, the healthcare and water projects which are now housed in the county government are not complete. The oversight committees of the NG-CDF should have a list of all that is still outstanding to determine whether we can allocate additional funds to those incomplete projects. The oversight committee is an issue that Members have talked about very passionately. It is true that you can disburse money but without an oversight committee out there to see how it is being used and how the projects are being implemented, it is an exercise in futility. Therefore, I ask the Committee to amend the NG-CDF Act to change the 2 per cent of the funds from the Budget which is disbursed in every constituency to 3 per cent as proposed by the Committee."
