    "content": "governments. When you talk about counties, it is not just the boundaries. It is also the resources found in the counties. In the list that this Bill proposes for the County Benefit Sharing Committee, I see Sen. Mungatana has included the CECM for Finance and the CCEM responsible for matters relating to natural resources. He has also included technical people and five persons elected by the local community. It is my submission that the office of the county Senator should be represented in the members of the County Benefit Sharing Committee. You cannot leave out the office of the Senator from such an important committee because it is our constitutional duty and responsibility to defend counties and county governments. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would have wanted to say more, but I am also considerate of other Members who want to weigh in on this Bill. I wish to just tell the promoter of the Bill that this is a very important Bill. Perhaps even in the course of debate of this Bill, he could organise a caucus with the Senators to just understand and enrich this Bill. By the time we get to Division, we will have a very good, nice Bill to take to our counties."
