    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Bill. I also wish to join my colleagues who have served since the 12th Parliament in commending the Senate. For the very first time, they have done something commendable. Indeed, this is exactly what the Senate ought to be doing. Anything else is a waste of public resources. This is where their constitutional mandate lies. When we debated the mediated version of this Bill, we did not have many kind words for the county governments. It is, therefore, commendable that the county assemblies have now been granted autonomy to operate independently. We hope, and indeed pray, that they will now serve as a strong layer of oversight over the excesses of the county government. The Bill is fairly descriptive. Many of the matters it addresses could easily have been integrated into broader legislation. While it may appear somewhat restrictive, the provisions are necessary and timely. With those few remarks, I support."
