I am very sure that if we did it like that we will have development at the grassroots and people will start appreciating. I do not want to be so critical about my county but it pains me that the county gets money and then puts up huge projects. My governor wants to put up a level six hospital in Kakamega, which is not bad. I have no problem with this, but he has smaller units which serve people daily and they are not getting funds. He is pushing the idea of creating a bank. Counties wants to set up ...

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. On this aspect, I am throwing a challenge to the Senate. I have no problem with economic blocs because people come together to do business. Adjacent counties can do things together and maybe harmonise taxation. But, setting up a bank is saying what? Is the bank going to be a regional or national bank? Is it going to have branches? Of what benefit will it be? I am asking the Senate if they are listening to me, they should interrogate this aspect of starting a bank in the Lake Region bloc, so ...

As I finish, I agree with most of the recommendations, the issue about electronic money transfer for bursaries is excellent. However, interrogations are necessary on the emerging issues of Appropriations in Aid (A-I-A) used to send money on the ground. We do not have a law in the The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor.

NG-CDF Act which will give us a chance to use this money. Therefore, we need this to be investigated. Therefore, are we better off when we get equal amounts of money in all constituencies? Constituencies have different needs especially those in urban areas do not require as much money as those in rural areas. Let me stop there and thank the Committee for its Report. I hope we will implement it.

Yes, Hon. Chairman. First, I support the amendment. Secondly, I think it makes it much clearer as to who will be the nominating bodies for the representatives of the Council of Governors and the boards. So, I support the amendment.

Mine was just a worry. We have deleted Clauses 52 and 53. The next one is Clause 54. Are we then moving everything upwards so that Clause 54 becomes Clause 53? I am just concerned. We have repealed Clauses 52 and 53. In the Bill, the next one is Clause 54. I am talking about re-numbering.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. May I start by thanking the Committee and the Chairman for the Report that has been presented to us. Secondly, as a medical doctor, it is very unfortunate to see some of the findings in the Report. Some of the things that we have read in the Report, from a medical point of view, cannot be equated to the profits, taxes or the revenue the LDKL is giving the Government. Currently, in the world, you even know from your own constituency, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, death has become very common. Long time ago when ...
