    "content": "chunk of that shareable revenue goes to recurrent budget rather than development budget. Therefore, it is very important to bring up an idea to have own source revenue. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir the own source revenue for Kitui County stands at Kshs324 million against a target of Kshs500 million. They are at 65 per cent of acquiring or getting to their specific target, but there is a problem. My point is that there is already a Bill in this House, it is an amendment to the Public Finance Management Act (PFM) that this House is already seized off that addresses the issue of coming up with a regulatory system that brings together the Controller of Budget, Kenya Revenue Authority and other key players. We will discuss this within the House so that they get together and come up with a system that is going to be shared across various counties, mobilise and put very well so that the collection of this revenue can be well-managed and so that there is a pattern and standardization across the counties. Therefore, if we are able to get to that point where we can make that amendment successfully as a House and be able to push this agenda, so that there is more regularity, standardization and efficiency in own source revenue, that will help counties. Thank you."
