Temporary Deputy Speaker, thank you for this opportunity you have given me so that I can make my comments on the County Allocation of Revenue (Amendment) Bill, Senate Bill No.29 of 2018. At the outset, let me record my support for the Bill. Let me also go on record that the best that ever happened to this country is devolution. We fought for it for many years to enable us get resources to the ground where people are and understand the challenges and difficulties affecting our people. As much as we have pumped a lot of funds and resources ... view

• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: THAT, Clause 12 of the Bill be amended in subclause (3) by deleting paragraph (c) and substituting therefor the following new paragraph- (c) may be withdrawn at any time by the Council, provided that such withdrawal shall not affect any decision made by the Director-General during the period which the Council had delegated power to the Director-General; view
• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: The reason is simple and straightforward. Once the Director-General has been given the delegated authority to make decisions, he or she will make decisions that will affect third parties. The provision under the Bill states that the Council might withdraw that delegated power. The decisions made during the subsistence of the delegated power can be withdrawn or varied by the Council. My point of concern was: What happens to those third parties who have been conferred benefits, positions and promotions during the period of the delegated power and they have made decisions and commitments based on that? What happens if ... view
