17 Mar 2020 in National Assembly:
must be very honest with the Constitution. It is illegal for the National Treasury to violate the Constitution. The Equalisation Fund is found in the Constitution for certain areas and for specific projects like water and electricity. The National Assembly is just sitting and does not comply with the Constitution. Every year, we allocate money to the Equalisation Fund, but we are not getting it. It is not going to the recipients. I think the Budget and Appropriations Committee, through the Chair of the Committee on Implementation, must act. The resolution of the House based on the Constitution must be ...

However, for the county governments, reading Article 219 of the Constitution, once both Houses appropriate money to county governments, you have no choice but to deliver those resources. So, before we get to the Third Reading, I want the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee to go into the lobbying room with his friend, Hon.

Speaker, with those many remarks, I beg to second.
