Hon. Chairman, the functions as expressed under sub clause 3 paragraph b, c, d, e and f, are a mixture of functions of Council, Director, Society and Adoption Societies. Hence, the proposed amendment is to align the functions of the Council. The Sub County Children Advisory Councils and other decentralised units that are representative of the Council and thus are performing the delegated functions of the Council at administrative level and areas of jurisdiction. Hon. Chairman, I beg to move."
