    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is overlap between the Executive and the Legislature in the appointment of the County Clerk in this Bill. It seems that the appointment of the Clerk in this Bill will be done by the Executive – the Governor. We need to move an amendment to that Clause so that the appointment of the Clerk is the responsibility of the County Assembly so that the County Assembly is the Legislature. They should play all the functions for legislation and manage their debates and the people who work for them. That is why I have even suggested to the Speaker and to you and to the Clerk, who run our National Assembly that the National Assembly has a duty to devolve or to help in providing for devolvement of our Parliament. For example, our Centre for Parliamentary Studies and Training (CPST) will be the school that will be the school that will train the clerks and other staff that work in Parliament in readiness to be deployed to the counties."
