    "content": "Samburu West, KANU): Thank you. I ask to be timed to conclude in two minutes and then allow my colleagues to contribute. Let me take this opportunity to congratulate Hon. Wamaua for being very consistent in matters related to education in this House. When there is any debate or issue to do with education, she has been very consistent and passionate about it. We can see it through the thought process she put into this amendment Bill. She is not just a fierce politician, but she is also concerned with matters related to our country's education. I do not want to belabour the importance of devolving matters education to the sub- county level. I am sure those doing this work at the county level will admit it has been overwhelming. We know some of our counties are vast, even for a county team to look at the entire county and the issues affecting various counties. Once devolved to the sub-county level, it will increase efficiency, effectiveness and timeliness in dealing with arising issues instead of waiting for the county team to sit. I have heard several of my colleagues talk about issues related to gender, disability, and marginalised groups, and Hon. Wamaua has captured this in the Bill. She has addressed the issue of not more than two-thirds of members of the same gender and equal opportunities for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) and marginalised groups. I must commend her. I hope this House passes this Bill and ensures it is implemented."
