Secondly, Article, 203 of the Constitution provides the criteria that shall be taken into account. That is provided for in Article 202 of the Constitution. One ... view
• 22 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: per cent of the most recently audited accounts of revenue that have been received and approved by Parliament – that is for the Financial Year 2009/2010. Those allocations are far way above the minimum requirement of 15 per cent. At this juncture, I want to urge the Public Accounts Committee of the National Assembly to fast-track the audited accounts of the other financial years 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, so that next year, we adhere to the law. We will share the revenue based on the audited accounts as approved by Parliament. view
• 22 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Article 205 of the Constitution provides that when a Bill that includes provisions dealing with the sharing of revenue, or any financial matter concerning county governments is published, the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) is consulted. That was done by a Committee of Parliament. The House has received presentations from CRA and has taken into account its recommendations. Article 218(1)(a) of the Constitution provides that, at least, two months before the end of each financial year, there shall be introduced in Parliament a Division of Revenue Bill, which shall divide the revenue raised between the two levels of Government. This ... view
• 22 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Article 218(2) of the Constitution further provides that the Division of Revenue Bill shall be accompanied by a memorandum explaining the revenue as provided by the Bill. If you compare this Bill with last year’s, you will see a difference. Last year, the element of the explanatory memorandum was missing. This year, this Bill has all the explanations. There is a deviation from CRA and the Budget and Appropriation Committee. The Bill is very elaborate in terms of explanations. Article 203(1) also gives a summary of significant deviations from CRA. For Members to know why CRA is asking for 53 ... view
• 22 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, this financial year, the National Treasury, after consultation with all the stakeholders; that is the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) and the Budget and Appropriations Committee has allocated Kshs226.6 billion. This is an equivalent of 43 per cent as per Article 203(2) of the Constitution which talks about the threshold of 15 per cent. view
• 22 Apr 2014 in National Assembly: The Kshs226 billion that will go to our counties is huge resources. If I speak for my county, a couple of months ago I witnessed a function where the county government of Garissa leased eight ambulances and recruited 245 paramedic officers from clinical officers, nurses, laboratory technicians to pharmacists. Those are the fruits of devolution. Never before have we seen in some counties 240 health workers. So, we expect the Kshs226 billion that will go to our counties to be used efficiently and accountably so that five years down the line the people of Kenya in the 47 counties will ... view
