"content": "Let me come to the CRA. The CRA is established under Article 215. Let the Chair of the Commission listen to me. We had a problem with Mr. Cheserem. Among other persons, members of the Commission are nominated by political parties unlike any other commission. Under Article 215 of the Constitution, the CRA is the only commission whose members are nominated by political parties. The Jubilee Party has four members while the National Super Alliance (NASA) has three. So, they must listen to Hon. Mbadi and I; they are our nominees. Their function is to recommend how the two levels of Government can share resources, but their recommendation is not binding and must be pegged on the revenue projection. All over a sudden, the CRA has become an appendix of the Council of Governors; they have become an associate of the Chairman of the CoG and have become an extension of the lower House of Parliament. Ekuru Aukot has confirmed in his question for the referendum that he wants to make the Senate the upper House. So, the question of which House is the upper one has been settled."
