    "content": "In disposal, the public has lost great amounts of money. Huge public properties have been disposed of for a song. It is all by design because the generalities of the law give loopholes used by crafty people to acquire public property. I support these regulations, as the Vice-Chair went through them, give clear details on all these areas and we believe they will protect the public and the businesspeople as well. It is also hoped that this will support the counties. As you can see, all the attempts by the MCAs to impeach the governors are all on procurement. There is a big issue, even if we help them in this country in devolution that we have not addressed; the counties are supposed to be independent entities. Independent but dependent. We have, however, not identified a way of ensuring that policies and standards that are of national function are applied, monitored and enforced at the counties level. Even if we have this, that is a matter that we must look at. I support the Motion to approve these statutory instruments. Thank you."
