This is because if we find out the status, I am sure we will clearly get that we are guided by this policy. (3) Explain whether the institutions affected by the proposed policy are aware of its existence and whether they refer to. If they refer to it, why do we still have inconsistencies in devolved functions within the various counties, six years down the line? view

• 14 Mar 2019 in Senate: We are looking at devolution within the counties and raising specific questions and answers to the process of devolution over time. We are in the second phase of devolution and clearly, during the first devolution, various issues arose. As you know, when you are implementing something, issues come out; these include huge bills within the counties, human resource needs to be reorganised; the issue of own resource revenue, which is critical within the various counties; and issue of policies, which are key. view
• 14 Mar 2019 in Senate: I, therefore, hope that as you watch us this afternoon, you will be able to take something back to your counties and also play your rightful role.

• 14 Mar 2019 in Senate: because I saw the passion and enthusiasm of Sen. Cheruiyot when he was moving it. It is not only a tea sector problem but we have a bigger problem. For example, in the recent past, we have had the Maize Report. Basically, our whole agricultural sector is in some problem in one way or another. I want to talk about the coast where I come from.
