    "content": "There is also the definition of a contractor. Those of us who use National Government- Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) sometimes find ourselves very limited because there are people who do not qualify to render services. Defining the local contractor to include proprietors, partnerships, associations and co-operatives is very important. This will include many people in the procurement process, particularly at the local level. I believe that if this law passes in the Senate, the county governments have many procurements that need to support local people who are not organised to get companies that are registered and have all those very difficult certificates and things to get. That will enhance support to local people where those procurements are concerned. Without that, we limit procurement to big institutions and many local people who may benefit are excluded."
