• 20 Mar 2019 in Senate: Product (GDP). One of the challenges that I hope the Bill will look into is how to handle Own Source Revenue (OSR). You will find that 12 to 13 per cent of any financing in all county governments across the country comes from OSR. We had a discussion to agree on how to work with Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) to ensure that we seal leakages in terms of revenue collection in our counties. Madam Temporary Speaker, in the Report of the Auditor-General for Financial Year 2014/2015 of Nandi County, the county government used to bank in less than 100 metres. ... view
• 20 Mar 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I heard Sen. (Prof.) Ongeri talk about County Integrated Development Plan (CIDP). It is very sad because the issue of CIDP has always been a problem across all counties. It is better we cast this in law. Regarding the CIDPs, the county governments went around the entire 47 counties, listened, synthesized, analyzed and up came with a report. They went into the county assemblies. Every citizen in all specific wards had their unique challenges or development needs. Interestingly, the CDIP reports are gathering dust in most of the county governments simply because they are disregarded. So, I ... view

• 20 Mar 2019 in Senate: When you look at this Gross County Product Report and the Auditor-General’s report, most counties were accused of either allocating zero per cent to development or even less than 20 per cent as provided for, which should be around 30 per cent to development. The issue is how we will ensure that county governments allocate this 15 per cent to development at the ward level. According to the Auditor-General’s Report, which has also been circulated in the media, most of the county governments allocated zero per cent in terms of development. When it comes to amendments, I want the Committee ... view

• 20 Mar 2019 in Senate: Let us not leave that unilateral decision to the CEC, Finance and Planning, and the wisdom of the governor. Because of vested political interests, the Governor might decide not to support development from a ward that did not vote for him. Madam Temporary Speaker, on the issue of County Revenue Fund (CRF) formula – the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights, the Standing Committee on Finance and Budget and the Committee on Devolved Governments and Inter-governmental Relations and I, are waiting for the report on the CRF formula. I know this year we are going for the national ... view
• 20 Mar 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, finally, I want to say that this Bill has captured the spirit and substance of Article 43 of the Constitution on Economic and Social Rights. I hope our Members of County Assemblies (MCAs) will use this law, to ensure that we bring equitable and equal development across our counties. Thank you. I support. view
