    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, we need to review the concept of public participation of the BPS. I have looked at the attachments and whereas the National Treasury, the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) and the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) appeared, I have not seen a submission from the Council of Governors (CoG). That is alarming because if the governors cannot appear before the Senate and prefer to go to Intergovernmental Budget and Economic Council (IBEC), yet I have not seen any communique from the IBEC on the conversation that took place between the two levels of Government. The Senate is being rendered irrelevant if we cannot insist that governors appear before us during the BPS. We need to summon governors if they cannot appear before us willingly. It is to the best interest of the governors to talk to the Senate rather than talking in hotels at the IBEC Forum. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
