"content": "Article 257(6) of the Constitution reads: ‘If a county assembly approves the draft Bill within three months after the date it was submitted by the Commission, the speaker of the county assembly shall deliver a copy of the draft Bill jointly to the Speakers of the two Houses of Parliament, with a certificate that the county assembly has approved it.’ The question then arises as to whether the five counties that have not submitted the Bill can still submit to you and whether you can accept? My reading of Article 257(6) suggests that after the three months, the counties that will not have submitted the Bill cannot submit. It is important that a communication and a direction on this particular clause is given."
