Some 100 constituencies will lose Sh771.06 million in allocations from the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) if Parliament adopts proposed changes to the cash distribution formula.

The National Government Development Fund (Amendment) Bill, 2019, which has already been adopted by the National Assembly’s Select Committee on the NG-CDF, proposes that the 290 constituencies equally share 75 percent of the annual NG-CDF allocation, with the rest distributed based on the number of wards in each constituency.
