    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I was getting worried that I may not catch your eye. I am very grateful and I do not take it for granted. Madam Temporary Speaker, I have just two issues: This Committee does very important work; it has an important responsibility regarding technology. We have two levels of government; the county governments and the national Government. I have had the privilege of discussing with Members of the National Assembly how the Budget is shared out. It has come to my attention that the national Government is working with the National Assembly to do certain ICT activities in constituencies without interfacing with county governments. If you look at previous, current and even future budget estimates, a lot of resources have been allocated to do ICT work in the constituencies at the expense of the counties. I want to urge the Committee to take note of this and to try to engage the Ministry to ensure that county governments are also brought on board because they are losing out in roll out of ICT activities. In view of time I thank you. I will not canvass the second point."
