Because of vested political interests, the Governor might decide not to support development from a ward that did not vote for him. Madam Temporary Speaker, on the issue of County Revenue Fund (CRF) formula – the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights, the Standing Committee on Finance and Budget and the Committee on Devolved Governments and Inter-governmental Relations and I, are waiting for the report on the CRF formula. I know this year we are going for the national census. These are formulas that we would like to know. I want to ask the county assemblies, in their wisdom, because I know they have the capacity to try to cascade down the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) formula, so that if you are in Kisumu City County, Nandi County or Kitui County, for example, you can stay in Nandi because Tinderet Sub-County is marginalized. Let us cascade down the CRA formula. Let us cascade down in areas like Mosop and the other parts of Emgwen and Chesumei, in terms of poverty index, so that we ensure that we allocate revenue based on the strength. Madam Temporary Speaker, I know we are almost coming to a close; if you could kindly add me two or three minutes so that I wrap up properly. When you look at Article 43, on Economic and Social rights---."
