• 17 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. I have listened intently to the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. He was speaking futuristically about the dangers which would affect the Division of Revenue Bill. COVID-19 is a global phenomenon that will affect the performance of economies around the world.

We are already setting the limits of what counties are going to receive and this has an implication towards national functions. It ... view
• 17 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: My point of order is that in his Report, we have not heard him explaining to the House how they have cushioned for the dwindling revenue collections in this financial year. view
