    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I come to Clause 36 which talks of the Governor and his proposals for those people who will hold the position of County Executive Members. He is supposed to make the proposals on So-and-so and then the County Assembly should approve, as provided in the Constitution. One of the things that has been put here, and which is very dangerous, is that contrary to the constitutional principle that one-third of all leadership should be of a different gender--- The argument that has been proposed by the Minister is that the County Assembly Members will be a maximum of 12. It is not possible to say that in all these counties we are going to have half women and half men. I propose that we must go back to the principle of one-third, so that they do not make it difficult for the leadership that will be chosen to run the County Executive in terms of its appointment. So, I will be proposing an amendment to the gender equality; I will go back to the usual requirement of one-third. It is a reality that in some of our counties it is going to be a tricky situation."
