    "content": "I will also be proposing that before a county presents the request to borrow any funds, there should be enough consultations or public participation at the county level, so that the people can be advised that the county will be getting into an agreement of borrowing so much money for a particular project. I say that because some officials at the county level could get into financial agreements and say that they want to fund some projects in some areas of that county and yet, they are not beneficial to all the members of that county. The other members will be left behind to repay that loan. I propose that all members of that county should be involved in various consultations, so that they can be advised on the type of loan to be taken and what it will be used for, even before the proposal comes to the House. The Cabinet Secretary should be satisfied that enough consultations and public participation has taken place. Under Clause 5, which is bringing a lot of heat in this House, my proposal would be that three months before the Cabinet Secretary enters into any agreement of any kind, that request should be brought to this House. My proposal would be three months before a guarantee is entered into, the Cabinet Secretary should publish and submit to Parliament the guarantee which, if approved, the county should enter into. With those few words, I beg to support."
