First, I would like to thank the Committee for doing a thorough job on this matter. I rise to support the work of this Committee, only on three areas. On the County Aggregation and Industrial Parks (CAIPs), where the counties and the national Government are partnering, we have counties which are given money by the national Government to the tune of around Kshs116 million. However, for the last one- and-a-half years, they have not been able to move and those projects are not on course. However, some counties are doing very well. I agree with my colleagues, that those counties whose CAIPs are doing well must now initiate the process of looking for investors and the products to be value-added on those county aggregation and industrial parks. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on the matter of Road Maintenance Levy Fund (RMLF), which is a very emotive issue, and I know as a House we have outstanding matters with the National Assembly, and whereas I support counties getting their share of RMLF as was, and the national Government receiving their bit, having been a governor, I would like to persuade this House that, the extra Kshs7 billion that has been set aside to secure some credit to enable the national Government complete their ongoing roads that were going to stall, that the majority of the roads that were done under low-volume seal are county roads. If those county roads are going to stall because this money is going to be shared, as a country, we may get a small share of that money, but we should not get the The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

I would wish to persuade my colleagues that the Kshs7 billion over above, that has been raised, be actually used for that model. On the issue of fiduciary risks that we have seen in counties, we thank the Committee for actually exposing the areas where funds are being lost. I am surprised that in my own county of Uasin Gishu, there is a variance in financial statements to the tune of Kshs55,167,000. That is not even surprising, but rather, the unsupported expenditure on fuel, oil, and lubricants amounting to Kshs177,043,731. I am aware of this matter. In fact, vehicles that are not serviceable are being fueled. That is the reason why they could not provide the work tickets.
