Senate yesterday unanimously passed the Division of Revenue Bill (DORB), 2021, amid lamentations of wanton pilferage of public funds.

In what seems like a move to claim stake to some additional Sh39.8 billion worth of conditional allocations, senators amended the DORB to exclude the provision of conditional allocations from the Bill.
