    "content": "Committee is very crucial. Most of the County Governments are relying on subsidiary legislation which was passed before the advent of the county governments. Under the Statutory Instruments Act, a subsidiary legislation, or a delegated legislation, a rule or regulation cannot be enforced for more than 10 years. It has to be automatically repealed after the period of 10 years. That is why the Senate Majority Leader is talking about 50 or so regulations that will be coming in because most of them are now expiring. Those which were done in 2013 with the advent of the county governments are now in their sunset years and will soon be repealed with the application of the law. Madam Temporary Speaker, this Committee is very crucial and I am happy that I am one of the Members. I will be happy to be elected as the Chairperson of this important Committee because I am sure I will be in a better position to educate the new Members who have come into this Committee and also assist them to understand the important work that this Committee undertakes in terms of scrutiny of the subsidiary legislation. I thank you and I support."
