    "content": "miscellaneous provisions, including the role of the Cabinet Secretary with the approval of the Parliament setting categories of premises that may not operate in the Act. A few amendments will be required. Among them, we have membership of the Tribunal and the role of county governments. The Cabinet Secretary has been given the responsibility to establish premises that can be exempted and those that cannot. The exemptions should be approved by the National Assembly. I believe the committee will look at it. The approval should be done by both Houses of Parliament, just like all other miscellaneous regulations and subsidiary laws. Remember that relationships between landlords and tenants are highly regulated or rather dealt with at the local level. There is a role played by county governments in as far as relationships are concerned. We have collection of taxes, licensing of the properties and designation of residential and business premise. All these should involve county governments. The best way to involve county governments is to involve the Senate. It is the role of this Senate to ensure that the role of the Cabinet Secretary is checked by both Houses of Parliament and not just the National Assembly only. I beg to second."
