Kimani Ichung’wah","speaker":{"id":1835,"legal_name":"Anthony Kimani Ichung'Wah","slug":"anthony-kimani-ichungwah"},"content":"The intention of this Clause is to reinforce what is already in the Bill. Parts 3 and 6 of the Bill categorise Public Private Partnership (PPP) agreements into those that also concern county governments. I want to give authority to the Attorney-General to have the power to determine whether a project concerns a county government. We have issues with Bills in this House and the Senate between the two Speakers of the two Houses in determining whether a Bill concerns the county governments or not. Therefore, I want clarity. The Attorney-General will determine whether a project concerns the county governments. As the former Leader of the Majority Party, Hon. Duale, said, this will prevent cases where a governor decides to engage into projects that necessarily do not involve county governments or where a contracting authority gets into projects that touch county governments."}
