What these numbers don’t measure
- Committee work
- Parliament publishes no committee attendance for either House, so nobody can count it — us included.
- Constituency work
- Funerals, harambees, schools, casework. Recorded nowhere we can read.
- Whether it worked
- We can count questions asked, not answers given.
- Speaking often isn’t speaking well. Use these to ask your representative better questions — not to grade them.
Data gaps
What we do not yet hold — and where it would come from.
-
County-wide NG-CDF project rollup
Individual NG-CDF project records now publish on each constituency page, from that constituency committee's own register. There is no county-level rollup of them yet: NG-CDF is a constituency fund, and totalling it by county would imply a county-level allocation that does not exist.
-
County government budget
The county government's own budget and expenditure (County Allocation of Revenue Act schedules, Controller of Budget county reports) are not yet ingested from their official sources.
