    "content": "THAT, Clause 7 of the Bill be amended- (a) in sub-clause (2) by deleting paragraphs (a) and (b) and substituting therefor the following new paragraphs- (a) the President who shall be the chairperson; (b) the Deputy president who shall be the vice chairperson; (c) the governors of the forty seven counties. (b) by deleting sub clause (3). Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I am on page 3280 to 3281 of the Order Paper. If you have the Bill with you, it is page 155. It is in respect of the National and County Governments Coordinating Summit. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, allow me in one breath to explain that the reason why I would like that we include the Deputy President to sit on that Summit as a Vice-Chair is that, under the new Constitution, the Deputy President enjoys Executive powers. Further, under the new Constitution in the unlikely event that the President is unable to continue for the rest of his term, it is expected that the Deputy President assumes office and completes the balance of the term. I am saying that if you have been keeping him out of the summit and then he now becomes the President, he will then become a stranger and will require some form of induction. However, if he has been sitting there, the institutional memory he has will make it business as usual and there will be no disruption. For that reason, I beg to move."
