    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I just want to comfort the Hon. Nominee No. 001 that this House has already pronounced itself that public private partnership should take place in the county governments. It is important that we empower the county governments to enter into public private partnerships. I will give you a typical example. If a county government wants to do a specialised hospital in a county and they do not have money, they could well contract a certain university to come and build the hospital through a public private partnership framework and organise on how they do it, so that people can get and pay for these services without having to wait for the Government to give them money. This is the kind of opening we are trying to create. However, approval has to be done by the National Treasury. That is why there is a requirement that even county programme must appear on the national list. They must also be in the country integrated borrowing plan. It is not something that comes from the air. Let it be harmonised within the national framework. The safeguards are there. The important thing is that this amendment is actually saying that if it is done at the county, it must be reported to the national level. It must also be in consonance with the County Integrated Development Plan. That is the amendment. It is a good amendment."
