    "content": "With regard to the third report - the Third Basis for Revenue Sharing among county governments for the Financial Years 2020/2021-2024/2025 from the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) is laid on the Table of this House for purposes of information for the time being. Hon. Members, if you look at the provisions of Article 217 of the Constitution, it is the Senate that ought to have the first bite of these recommendations so that whatever decisions they arrive at, they will present them to you. If you look at that Article, you will realise that if you are to disagree with the recommendations or the report from the Senate, you will need two-thirds of yourselves. I am sure Hon. John Mbadi is comfortable with this because he knows… He has argued in the past that after this report is adopted, it means that maybe the CRA will not be doing much, unless it is doing research only, until 2025. Hon. Members, this is just for your information. Our Committees should not start looking at these recommendations. This is because as per the Constitution, the Senate should bring their Report to us, so that we can see what they have said regarding the recommendations of the CRA."
