Sen. Kisang Sen. Dullo, please proceed.

Sen. Kisang Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also want to make a comment on the New KCC issue. The Kenya Kwanza Government did a lot of campaigns across the country to encourage our farmers, especially dairy farmers. We were promised Kshs53 per litre of milk.

Sen. Kisang’ Madam Temporary Speaker, the good governor and the Minority Whip have misunderstood me. I said what the National Treasury is trying to do and which is a good thing, is to look for a good county revenue integrated management system. They are basically giving them a grant, a...

Sen. Kisang’ Madam Temporary Speaker, this is still a proposal and I believe the National Treasury and CoG have a conversation. I am not speaking for the National Treasury, the governors or the county governments. I was just raising what is outside there and also as an expert in the...

The distinguished Senator from Elgeyo-Marakwet proposes that this House adopt a formula where each county receives an equal allocation of between Kshs5 billion to Kshs6 billion. Is he in order, given that...

Sen. Kisang’ Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have a supplementary question. I listened to the answers by the CS which are diplomatic. The CS said we may pay after the Cabinet sub-committee finishes its job and Parliament allocates the resources. However, I expected him to say, as the CS...
