    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Clauses 25 and 26 of the Bill makes detailed provision for service of notices required under the Bill and allows county licensing authorities to recover license fees owed as a debt in courts. Clause 27 of the Bill empowers the Cabinet Secretary responsible for matters relating to licensing to make regulations specifically to bring to effect the provisions of the Bill once enacted. Clause 28 empowers County Assemblies to enact county specific legislation to give further effect to the provisions of the Bill once enacted. As you noted from my remarks on the Bill, it seeks to establish uniform framework, which will form the basis of licensing processes in all counties. A uniform framework for licensing will guarantee certainty and predictability for business owners trading within counties and is vital to the ease of doing business in counties. A business environment underpinned by certainty and predictability will boost entrepreneurship, create employment opportunities, reduce the cost of doing business and promote regular and reliable revenue streams for county Governments. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those many remarks, I beg to move and request Sen. Cherarkey to second. Thank you."
