The guidelines do also provide that the Speakers of the two Houses of Parliament shall not receive any draft Bill and certificate where the Bill was considered by the county assembly after the expiry of the period specified under Article 257 (6) of the Constitution. Hon. Members, in furtherance to requirements of paragraph 5 of the said guidelines, the statistics of the submissions which have been formally delivered by the respective speakers of the county assemblies as at 2.00 p.m. today, Thursday, 25th February, 2021 are as follows – (a) Thirty county assemblies have delivered the draft Bill with a certificate indicating their approval of the Bill. They are: Siaya, Homa Bay, Kisumu, Trans Nzoia, Busia, Kajiado, West Pokot, Laikipia, Kisii, Nairobi, Garissa, Mombasa, Taita Taveta, Kakamega, Kitui, Vihiga, Murang’a, Narok, Makueni, Kirinyaga, Nyeri, Bungoma, Machakos, Nakuru, Meru, Tharaka- Nithi, Tana River, Embu, Nyandarua, Marsabit and Kericho. (b) One county assembly, which is Baringo County Assembly, rejected the draft Bill. However, I note that the county assembly only submitted a certificate of rejection and failed to submit a copy of the draft Bill as required under the guidelines. It may not be possible, therefore, to know what they rejected."
