"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I would like to support this Motion. We must have a system of restraining county governments from hiring external law firms to represent them in courts. Last week, we were taken through a report by the County Public Accounts Committee (CPAC) that indicated that we have a serious fiduciary risk in our counties on the matter of external law firms that have charged our counties exorbitant amount of money. That is a problem because 22 counties, excluding Nairobi City County, are supposed to pay a whopping Kshs30.6 billion to law firms. Nairobi City County alone is supposed to pay Kshs21.4 billion. That is just money that is supposed to be paid to law firms. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
